Hi Anil,

the problem is here

https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml/blob/adcf2cb2c6bea7701d399e7ec8734b55403584a3/build-aux/ocaml_version.m4#L82

m4 in base doesn't support %d datatypes for format().

Also, of course, I just noticed that my patch has no BUILD_DEPENDS on devel/m4. Should have kept my hands off that port ;-)

cu,
Volker

Here's an update for ocaml 4.14.0 ... my initial drama with M4 aside, this 
seems to work on amd64, and rebuilds

Thanks Volker!  What was the incompatibility with the base m4 in OCaml 4.14.0? 
May be able to fix that upstream as well...

Anil
