Ok, fine, this would have been my choice too.

This is rather strange. What do you mean with "to compile A"? Do you get
the error while running cduce on the .cd file or when using CDuce
compilation for ".cdo" files?

I don't think it is worth the effort splitting a libcduce-ocaml-dev
pacakge, even if we will need to depend both on curl and expat, they're
something like additional 100 Kb for people installing CDuce.
Anyway, have you asked on the CDuce mailing list about this dependency?
Thanks for your work on CDuce,
Cheers.
