My "rant" would be about your decision to backport a recent version of dh-ocaml without contacting the original maintainers. As said elsewhere, keeping an "old" version of dh-ocaml in the backports was done *on purpose*, because versions >= 0.9 of dh-ocaml introduce very intrusive changes in the packaging workflow/toolchain not suitable for the backports. For example, I backported an "old" version of camlbz2 *on purpose* because newer versions introduce changes only in the packages not relevant for a backport. With your backport of dh-ocaml 0.9.3, you've just complicated the backports of OCaml packages from now on.
