debugging in toplevel

[Guillaume Yziquel <guillaume.yziquel@citycable.ch>]

Hi.

I've been working on Yoann Padioleau's version of ocaml-python bindings.

I unfortunately get the following error:

> yziquel@seldon:~$ ocaml

> - : unit = ()

How do you debug something like this? ocamldebug and #trace do not seem 
to be very useful. What would you recommend doing to debug this toplevel 
error?
