As Edwin said, I don't think interaction with existing ocamlopt-
compiled code is that important.  Debian and Fedora routinely
"recompile the world".  What is more important is compatibility with C
extensions.  How difficult is just C extension compatibility?  Or
something that was mostly compatible but needed a few changes to C
extensions?
