Oops, just tried. I got the same compilation error, so it is not your
building environment.

Since you just get started, I would recommend work on 4.02.3. Multicore
will be just one piece of the whole OCaml eco-system, so you can hone your
skills on the rest for now. And many tools still have problems with 4.03.0
(Batteries is released today for 4.03.0, yeah!) and certainly you don't
want to deal with these overhead when you just get started.

Anyway, welcome to the list.
