I had not thought about this... Actually, it is not a bad idea, at least, in my
build system. Ideally, the build system would have to have a way of mangling the
library namespace by packaging up findlib-managed libraries in a single package.
Then, it would have to isse the desired -open directives to an ad-hoc camlp4
syntax extension. It's a bit of a hack, but it could work. I wonder if it is
general enough a solution to become mainstream, though.
