I don't think so. Libraries are not linked with -linkall per defaults,
as such not all md5sums of all modules in the standard library are
included in .cmo. If you link an hello world program you will indeed
see:
zack@fistandantilus:~$ ocamlobjinfo b.cmo
File b.cmo
Unit name: B
Interfaces imported:
71f888453b0f26895819460a72f07493 Pervasives
d01e4e6ff24eeaf6ac4e09bde34a006b B
Uses unsafe features: no
Thus, only libraries referring, directly or transitively, to modules
with md5sum mismatch will need to be rebuilt.
If the problem is only with Thread and Grammar module we will be pretty
lucky ... I'm comparing ocaml packages of 3.08.1 and 3.08.2 in order to
establish which modules are affected.
Stay tuned.
Cheers.
