Probably the same problem you could have with experimental: the buildd
doesn't pull packages from bpo unless it has to.  So in some cases (in
this case ocaml and ocaml-base) sbuild notices that the default versions
are not sufficient and that it needs the ones from bpo, but in some
others it doesn't (ocaml-nox and ocaml-base-nox here).  Adding explicit
build-deps on ocaml-nox (>= 3.10.1), ocaml-base-nox (>= 3.10.1) would
probably work around that.  Or fix sbuild to deal with virtual packages
better, but...
(meh. why are people unable to read build logs?)

Cheers,
Julien
