What do you mean by 'calling the linker'? Do you mean system level
functions like `dload` (or it's equivalent for OCaml libraries) ? Or
do you mean calling OCaml compiler's linker in compile time?

Is there a program like `ldd` that shows dynamically linked OCaml
libraries of a OCaml program?

Where can I learn more about OCaml binary file formats like .cma, .cmx
? I couldn't find a related section in language manual.
