Subject: [Caml-list] unmarshaling large data from string on 32 bits

Hello, I've just discovered that on 32 bits systems strings are
limited to 16M.  I'm using strings as buffers holding data to
be unmarshaled.  I could use another data structure, like a Buffer.t,
but I see no API for unmarshaling from a Buffer.t.

Is there another way? Is there code out there implementing that?

Best,
