[Is there a good mailing list for discussion of, or help with writing
META files?]

Anyhow ... For bitmatch, after a lot of faffing around yesterday, I
came up with this file:

  http://code.google.com/p/bitmatch/source/browse/trunk/META.in

I wonder if people would comment on it?  It seems to have problem.
One needs to write:

  ocamlfind ocamlc -package bitmatch.syntax -syntax bitmatch.syntax ...

instead of what I would have expected:

  ocamlfind ocamlc -package bitmatch -syntax bitmatch.syntax ...

Also it hard-codes preprocessor = "camlp4of".  I don't know if that is
a good thing or not.

Rich.

I was thinking that the call should have been:

ocamlfind ocamlc -package bitmatch.syntax -syntax camlp4o ...
