Dear Ocaml Users,
It is our pleasure to announce that the release of 3.11.2 is imminent.
What we need now is your cooperation for testing the release candidate,
especially on Windows.
The release candidate is available as source code at this address:
ftp://ftp.inria.fr/INRIA/Projects/cristal/ocaml/ocaml-3.11/ocaml-3.11.2+rc1.tar.bz2
See the list of changes at the end of this mail.
After testing this release candidate, please send a mail to
<damien.doligez@inria.fr> and tell us what you tested and whether
it worked.
Notes for Windows users:
- A recent update to Vista seems to have broken cygwin version 1.5.
You will need to install the new version 1.7.1 instead:
http://www.cygwin.com/
- You will also need the latest version of Alain Frisch's flexdll,
version 0.21: http://alain.frisch.fr/flexdll.html#download
Happy new year's eve to everyone,
-- The OCaml Team

I've successfully recompiled most of the packages depending on ocaml
currently available in Debian sid on amd64. The missing packages are

All successfully built packages are apt-able at (targeted at sid):
deb http://debian.glondu.net/debian ocaml3112rc1 main

A summary of the successfully built packages is available at:

The repository is signed with my GPG key. Build logs and *.changes files
are next to their *.deb counterparts, unsigned.

I've pushed this out to Fedora Rawhide users after some very light
testing myself. If there are any major problems we should see reports
from QA systems and users in a day or two.

Following up, two packages had problems building:
camlp5 - When you compile, it complains it doesn't know anything about
3.11.2 and that this will require an upstream change.
cduce - Also FTBFS.
I have not looked any deeper into either of these build problems at
the moment.
Everything else built fine.
Rich.

The first patch attached adds support for 3.11.2 (see comments in it).
I've also added some fixes to the manpage that are of course irrelevant
for the support of OCaml 3.11.2 (hopefully, they will also be applied in
the next upstream release).
> cduce - Also FTBFS.
You mean ocamlduce? cduce compiles fine. I've tagged in git [1] a new rc
for ocamlduce. A tarball is available at [2]. I will wait for the final
release of OCaml 3.11.2 to make a new formal release of ocamlduce.

I've managed to compile this RC on Windows 7 x64 using the MinGW 32-bit port
(with ocaml-calendar 2.02, ocaml-csv 1.1.7, extlib 1.5.1, findlib 1.2.5,
json-static 0.9.8, json-wheel 1.0.6, ocamlnet 2.2.9, ocamlsha 1.5,
ocaml-pcre 6.0.1, pgocaml 1.4 and spiderCaml 0.2).
OCaml seems fine, but.....
The latest version of Cygwin seems to contain a questionable change to the
handling of symlinks which created more trouble building OCaml than previous
versions (as flexlink runs "natively" and not within Cygwin) - although I've
built OCaml and these libraries successfully within bash, I'm having trouble
with ocamlopt when run outside bash (my usual setup is cmd + GnuWin32).
Has anyone else got ocamlopt working properly with non-trivial code (C stubs
and so on) on Windows outside Cygwin? I'm getting errors from gcc trying to
run cc1 which I think is to do with symlink misery and also I can't link
anything with ocamlopt unless running in bash. The Cygwin team's decision to
revert to the default to their own internal symlink format is almost as
questionable as Microsoft's making the API for creating NTFS symlinks in
Vista/2008 require administrator privileges but unlike Microsoft I'm sure
they actually have some good reason for it...

Is there an ETA for 3.11.2? I'd very much like to include it in
RHEL 6.

We have some problems with Windows, and I'm not sure whether I'll
do an RC2, but I hope to release 3.11.2 within 3 weeks.

Is it this the problem you are talking about:
Notes for Windows users:
- A recent update to Vista seems to have broken cygwin version 1.5.
You will need to install the new version 1.7.1 instead:
http://www.cygwin.com/
- You will also need the latest version of Alain Frisch's flexdll,
version 0.21: http://alain.frisch.fr/flexdll.html#download
