The other version is svn.debian.org vs pkg-ocaml-maint.alioth.debian.org. The former is to be prefered, since the later will/may break when alioth moves as it happeened recently. Or vice-versa. The @ is not needed, as it is used for non-anonymous access, with svn+ssh://<user>@sven.debian.org. The packages in the debian/ocaml repo are in debian dir + upstream tarball form, and you use opkg-buildpackage (from pkg-ocaml-maint/tools) to build them. Alternatively, you can make an export (to get ride of the .svn dirs), and then copy the debian dir in the upstream tarball by hand, but opkg-buildpackage is more handy.
