Ok, also see my other mail to Nicolas on the subject...

I've lost you, which names are you considering here? My proposal is to
keep "ocaml-nox" (though I've never liked it since it's not clear that
"nox" means "no SPACE x", but these are details...) and to add an
additional new package with extra camlp4 stuff (both binaries and
libraries). An honest proposal would be "ocaml-camlp4-extra".

Ok, will do.
