How are arbitrary recursive types implemented in caml? Is it done using 
an explicit fix point combinator "type" so that the unifier itself does 
not go into an infinite loop?

I apologize if this topic has been previously discussed, and I would 
really appreciate if somebody can point me at the relevant postings.

Thanks,
Swaroop.
