4.05 was just released so I've rebuilt ocaml (with your updated 0006 patch), findlib, ocamlbuild (with the additional B-D), and camlp4 here:

https://people.debian.org/~infinity0/apt/pool/main/c/camlp4/
According to @diml the ppx-deriving errors are fixed in Jane Street's development repo: https://github.com/whitequark/ppx_deriving/pull/141#issuecomment-315334631 I haven't verified this yet, but hopefully they'll cut a release soon.
I'll have some more time next week to chase up these things. I was a bit hesitant about 4.05 since this ppx-deriving issue affects quite a lot of stuff that I'm personally interested in, but I guess it'll be fixed soon based on what I linked above. So if you are all happy I will push my 4.05 updates to alioth git and Debian experimental next week. (Please say so if you're not!)
