The problem disappears after downgrading binutils to 2.21.51.20110421-6ubuntu1. Steps to reproduce: echo > empty.ml && ocamlopt empty.ml && ./a.out Using the "-S" option of ocamlopt might be useful, to have a look at the generated assembly code, but I don't know what to look for... I hope someone more familiar with binutils code can help. I found that while investigating the recent build failures of ocaml stuff or armel. Everything works find in the armel port of Debian.
