I don't think ubuntu or debian installs any libraries in
/usr/local/lib/ocaml (if it did, it would be a violation of policy since
/usr/local is meant to be, duh, local).  It merely creates that
directory tree if it doesn't exist, as a skeleton for libraries you
might install separately from source.

I am also surprised that the location /usr/lib/ocaml/camlp5 is
unexpected.  True, it is not the default if you compile camlp5 from
source - but the same can be said about, for example, gcc ;-)
