Will do. But, looking at the build daemon logs, ocaml 3.01-4 won't build even on armv4l: ../../../boot/ocamlrun ../../../ocamlopt -I ../../../stdlib -labels -c -I ../support tk.ml /tmp/camlasm2.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/camlasm2.s:26142: Error: Invalid constant /tmp/camlasm2.s:30129: Error: Invalid constant Assembler error, input left in file /tmp/camlasm2.s make[3]: *** [tk.cmx] Error 2
