How about not writing a parser at all? In Python, use ConfigParser, and
in OCaml, use, erm, ConfigParser! :-) (See
http://quux.org/devel/missinglib) BTW, the ConfigParser in missinglib
will shortly have string interpolation in the same manner as Python has.

Hmm... what makes that a problem for you? (What specifically are you
trying to do that requires you to call OCaml from Python?)
