Interesting, I didn't know that. Those two files should definitely be
companions of ocaml-autoconf, and I presume they initially were meant
as such.

Jean-Christophe has already agreed in relicensing ocaml-autoconf
macros, I presume there will be no problem in doing the same with
those snippets and distributing them together with ocaml-autoconf.

Regarding the packaging, I've no objections in adding all this to
ocaml-tools, but I had the impression you were in the past
"discouraging" multiple-source Debian packages. In fact that's one of
the reasons for me to propose a separate package. But if you are fine
with adding another bit to ocaml-tools I've no objections whatsoever.

Cheers.
