Well, consider :

let module M = struct let f x = x * x end in M.f 5 ;;

Sure, you still have to access f trough M., but you could imagine something
with the open/include directive. Not sure if it is possible already to do a
local open, but i think it was already discussed in the past. Consider :

let module M = struct let f x = x * x end in let open M in f 5 ;;

not sure if that is what you wanted though, ...
