Changes will be required anyway, if only to support the *ultimate* ppx: ppx=
_loader. I wasn't suggesting in anyway that ocamldep should be changed, oca=
mldep looks for dependencies among compilation units and that's the only th=
ing it should do (and if one day we can hope to get meta programming in the=
 language itself, it's all that will be needed).=20=20
