Subject: Marshalling question

Dear ocaml users,

A simple question: is it safe to marshalize a data structure that
contains imperative elements (like arrays or hashtbl) ?
I found the documentation of the Marshal module rather obscure to me.
In particular it is not clear whether I should use the No_sharing
flag.

Thank you!
