Why does plplot use ocamlc -custom to compile?  I'm not sure it is 
necessary.  If I remove it it appears to compile and tests run fine for 
me.  I ask because of this:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:OCaml?rd=Packaging/OCaml#Stripping_binaries

  Stripping binaries

Binaries should be stripped, as per ordinary Fedora packaging guidelines.

There is one exception where a binary should not be stripped. If the 
package was compiled with ocamlc -custom then the package contains 
bytecode which strip will remove, thus rendering the binary inoperable. 
It is easy to test for this: If after stripping, any attempt to run the 
binary results in the message No bytecode file specified then the binary 
is compiled like this and should not be stripped.
