Indeed, I have no idea how it was included but it is (re)generated by
make doc so I'll make sure it is removed.

OK.  Fedora also uses separate packages for ocaml-cil-doc and
ocaml-cil-cilly; is this also required for Debian?

The perl wrapper script bin/cilly provides a --bytecode flag to invoke
the bytecode version.  I'm not sure about the historical motivation for
this (ocamldebug comes to mind), but I am reluctant to potentially break
existing user workflows just for the sake saving 1.3 MB.

OK.

I'll let you know when a new version is available.

Thanks for your review,
