Igor, if you mean that releasing a new OCaml would mean that I'd have to
rebuild and rerelease all of the Unison packages, I don't have any
objection, assuming the packages will still build without trouble.

If the current Unison packages won't run with the new OCaml runtime, then
yes, we should coordinate the releases.  Once a new OCaml compiler is built
I can use it to rebuild Unison.

I have to dig back into Unison soon anyway, because a new version is out.
