Note that recently netwinder and non-netwinder arm machines did also differ enough to FTBFS or not... If hedges is a Netwinder, I'll probably take care of scheduling ocaml on toffee which is a CATS... > Note that, if all goes badly, we can't fix this by just not supporting > ocamlopt on arm, as the problem is with ocamlrun (bytecode interpreter), > so our only alternative to fix the bug would be not having at all ocaml > on arm. Lets first look at what made it FTBFS before thinking about the worst... Btw, uploading Arch: all packages (build) depending on the new ocaml is fine now...
