May be there is another option: Somehow the OCaml support could be
obtained by a diff between the Debian packaged version 12-068 and the
fork[1]. No idea how large this diff might be but may be it might apply
more or less cleanly to the latest Debian packaged version as a quilt
patch. This could give us OCaml support to the latest upstream version.
Kind regards
Andreas.
