Why don't you distribute a binary then ?
If I'm a user I don't want to install ocaml on my system just to
compile your project. Also, non technical users don't use the command
line.
If it is an application the best thing to do is to distribute it in
a .app bundle (in which you can include dynamic libraries, altough in
that case, given the dependencies I'd simply statically link against
extlib)
Best,
Daniel
