Wrapping the ocaml* commands seems reasonable, but I was asking a more
general question about what files should be installed for libraries.
1) .cma and .cmxa files clearly need to be installed for linking
2) .cmi files need to be installed for compiling (?)
3) .cmx files should be installed for cross-module inlining / optimization
4) .cmt files for compiler tools
5) .mli files for users to read directly (optional)
6) Any .cmo files not put into .cma libraries
What am I forgetting?
