Actually, now I see that this has nothing to do with Mac OS X.  I fail in the same way on a linux system when I try to compile:

    type foo = NAME of string
    class bar = object (self)
        method baz = NAME "test"
    end

If baz has an argument, it compiles without any problem.  Similarly, if baz returns a Big_int or just an integer, no problem.

Any suggestions?
