Allow me to congratulate the team on this excellent and speedy work! I'm impressed!! [2.02-3-4-99 in a few weeks!] Question: I see no mention of support for ocaml coded finalisers. This is a feature that I heard might be supported, and would be very useful to me, implementing python __del__ methods in my ocaml based python interpreter, Viperi. Can someone tell me the status of this issue?
