OK. Yes, I could meddle with my myocamlbuild.ml file. My myocamlbuild.ml 
file is the same as the one on the wiki:

http://brion.inria.fr/gallium/index.php/Using_ocamlfind_with_ocamlbuild

But I mean, if I'm supposed to write a myocamlbuild.ml for every project 
I make, I might as well use Makefiles, as below.

I was wondering if there was a myocamlbuild.ml that would solve the C 
stub problem and bottleneck. For instance, being able to _tag in the 
tags file for a given .c file the directories in which to look for 
headers (here /usr/share/R/include), and for .o files, all linking 
information (here, /usr/lib/R/lib/libR.so).

The ideal would be to have all that available only from _tags.

Because if you need to write a myocamlbuild.ml for each and every 
project, you might as well write Makefiles... That's the point of a 
generic plugin.
