This one is classical.
When you use > foo.mli, the shell creates foo.mli BEFORE running ocamlc.
So when ocamlc sees that there is a .mli file, it looks for the
corresponding .cmi and complains loudly that it does not exist.
The solution is to do
ocamlc -i foo.ml > foo.mli.tmp
mv foo.mli.fmp foo.ml
I guess that the compiler should accept a -output-mli option or something
similar, to avoid the above kludge.
