Indeed.

No, it's not the case. However, having an old version of OCaml in
unstable also blocks other stuff: new versions of OCaml-related stuff
start picking up new features of OCaml so we cannot update them before
OCaml. Moreover, sometimes, fixes for failing packages need the new
version of OCaml. That's why I am in favour of removing packages from
testing in order to update OCaml. IMHO, failing packages can be fixed later.

I've recompiled everything with the final ocaml 4.02.2, fixing a few
things on the way. The build logs are available at:
http://ocaml.debian.net/debian/ocaml-4.02.2/
There are 34 MISSING packages. I have attached a summary.

I will.
