Hi,
Using the Marshal module from the ocaml interpreter, I found its strange
behavior. Though Marshal.from_string is registered in the Marshal.mli
interface file, the interpreter complains for "Reference to undefined
global". Folloing is my session

Add "marshal" to

set sort stack string stream sys oo genlex topdirs toploop weak lazy
in the main Makefile.

Yes, that's a mistake in the building of ocaml. Basically, the
implementation of the "Marshal" module was removed. The reason you
can still use "Marshal.to_string" is that it's a primitive, not
defined in the implementation of "Marshal", while "Marshal.from_string"
is ML code from the implementation of "Marshal".
The problem will be fixed shortly. Thanks for the bug report, but
really your message doesn't belong to caml-list@inria.fr, you should
have mailed caml-light@inria.fr instead.
Regards,
