[Caml-list] Not being able to build Ocaml in Fedora 12

Dear sir/ Madam,

For one of our research papers, we have decided to use *CIL* as the
instrumentation tool. For that *Ocaml* is required. Unfortunately, I am not
being able to build Ocaml in Fedora 12. The respective gcc is : gcc-4.4.2.
Can you please let me know what mistakes I am doing ? I did not find the
help regarding fedora 12 and gcc-4.4.2 in any of the discussion forums.

Here is the log of "make":

Can you please help me out for it ? I really need it.

Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Feora 12 is well out of support.  It's very unwise to use these old
unsupported versions.

In addition, OCaml and CIL are already in Fedora (OCaml since
approximately forever), and indeed Fedora 15 has very the latest
versions of both.  You don't need to compile either from source.
