As usual camlp4 and camlp4 need to be updated in sync with ocaml. All
ocaml ports were successfully builds- tested on amd64. coccinelle remains
broken, but was built with the proposed diff floating on ports@
ok chrisz@
reviewed ports wise and help with @pkgpath, ok by sthen@
reviewed and help with bytecode-only plists, minor nits and ok by jca@
tested on sparc 64 by @jca
tested on aarch64 by Kurt Miller
tested on amd64 by me
Thanks for reviews and testing!
* net unison needed some patchign to avoid deprecated library functions.
* all ports depending on the exact version of OCaml need revision bumps.
* net/unison needed some help to avoid deprecated library functions.
ok krw@, testing on i386 and ok daniel@
them all compiling.
Tweaks include updating
ocaml-batteries 2.3.1 -> 2.5.0
ocaml-lwt 2.4.8 -> 2.5.2
ocaml-ppx-tools 0.99.2 -> 4.03.0
ocaml-camlp4 4.02+6 -> 4.03+1
utop 1.15 -> 1.19.2
and fixes to coccinelle and wyrd to let them build on bytecode archs.
Other necessary tweaks from the various homes of the projects.
Everything still builds on amd64 (native and bytecode) and sparc64 (bytecode).
ok anil@ sthen@ so final 4.3.0 tweaks can be done in-tree.

The next step towards Ocaml 4.3.0.
Bulk build by sthen@ identified several laggards which are included here.

arch, but the upstream Makefiles are impenetrable)
Parmap is a minimalistic library allowing to exploit multicore
architecture for OCaml programs with minimal modifications: if you want
to use your many cores to accelerate an operation which happens to be a
map, fold or map/fold (map-reduce), just use Parmap's parmap, parfold
and parmapfold primitives in place of the standard List.map and friends,
and specify the number of subprocesses to use by the optional parameter
~ncores.
