According to http://caml.inria.fr/mantis/view.php?id=5528, the "Inline records for constructor arguments" feature has been merged to trunk. I think this is a huge improvement to the language that will improve code readability for at lot of projects. An end-of-year release seems very far away, especially if the release date slips because multicore support is such a disruptive change.
