Package: libextlib-ocaml-dev
Version: 1.5.1-1+b2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch


Hello,

in my code I ran into the problem described here:
https://code.google.com/p/ocaml-extlib/issues/detail?id=13

If you have large lists and want to append them via @-operator, the
original @-operator of stdlib will be called. The problem is, that the
stdlib-operator is not tail recursive and you could get stackoverflow
error.

Because the Extlib-package, in detail the ExtList-module delivers an @-operator which *is* tail-recursive an
stackoverflow should not occure anymore.

The problem was, that the ExtLib module does not include the
ExtList-Module correctly.

For details see link above, the fix is found on
https://code.google.com/p/ocaml-extlib/issues/attachmentText?id=13&aid=5064188974096909548&name=import-at-append.patch&token=2bc2f2440a48519b5648a2bf52fc1c5e

Bye Andreas

I think this addresses your concerns: Feel free to reopen if it is not
the case.
