When I manually run it :-)
Using cdbs or adding appropriate makefile dependencies you can have it
generated automatically at the beginning of the build process. However,
since the source part of debian/control is subject of changes, the start
of the build process is already too late (build dependencies are
computed before that moment).

I did it that way.

When the ocaml abi changes. Hopefully this will happen only with ocaml
upstream releases.
