Are the formatting issues resolved in the 4.02.0+turnk switch in OPAM (that's, dev0-2014-08-29)? I'm getting segmentation faults from fprintf in my application even in that branch (see below). I'll work to pin it down as it very well could be a miss-formatted string on my part, but obviously we shouldn't seg-fault. let me know if I should hold off.

thanks,

Compilation of [1] skyrocketed (at least here on rather oldish PPC
machine), hopfully things would be a bit better in 4.02.1.
