According to the Changes file,
https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml/blob/trunk/Changes
native dynlink was first introduced in 3.11.0, released in December 2008.
Its support depends on both the operating system and the architecture.
For example, natdynlink was only supported on ARM machines starting
from 4.00 (July 2012).
The current configuration code is available at
https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml/blob/ee9d50e899f98283620db5693f6e43a340422756/configure#L634-L778
It seems to be currently supported on most x86 and x86-64 systems, but
only on Linux for PowerPC and Sparc, and only on Linux and FreeBSD for
ARM.
