Of course not, but this is not the point. Indeed, the same argument can
be made for C libraries, but for C libraries the default is not to ship
debugging symbols, why OCaml should make a difference from this point of
view? That's the question we should find an answer for (or alternatively
remove the debugging symbols from all OCaml libraries...).

Cheers.
