I noted this. It seems to me that the toplevel's behaviour has changed
in the 3.12 release. It doesn't seem to rely on available type
information to display the exception, but rather seems to inspect the
low-level layout of the exception's content. None and 0 are the same.
Strings are not.
I may be mistaken, but it seems to that I was raising exceptions in the
toplevel with arguments that were custom blocks. This made the toplevel
segfault when trying to read the custom block.
I feel that this is a regression from previous OCaml toplevel behaviour,
but I'm not so sure.
