Why an int ? Isn't a boolean enough ?

Apart from "val of_list : elt list -> t" (a one liner) and the find
function (a fold with an exception or using `exists` and keeping a
reference, which indicates, I think, that it should be implemented 
directly in set.ml), i don't remember truly missing functions. 
What are those ?

are really caml hackers who don't want to know about the OO part.
