--- Comment #33 from John Marino <marino@FreeBSD.org> ---
Michael,

There has been significant fallout from updating from ocaml 4.01 to 4.02.  Many
ports no longer build  (incidentally I consider this a black mark against ocaml
in general).

In the future, I think it should be mandatory to perform an EXP-RUN on updates
to figure out what ports are going to fail and if possible get a fix in place
that must be committed at the same time as the ocaml upgrade.


Intuitively I would not have imagined such fallout from a 0.01 change in
version but apparently this is possible.  The update to 4.02 has not been
smooth at all.
