Ok, many thanks. I can try to have a look at it today.

Don't know, Sven, you're the camlrpc maintainer, am I wrong?

I'm working on dh_ocaml which approach this issue from another point of
view: let's look at all the .cmo/.cma shipped by a package and find out
package dependencies looking them up in a system registry. This approach
will work no matter if the package uses findlib or not.

Still, a script which automatically tries a #require "name" would be
good to test if dynamic loading works properly.

Cheers.
