Hi,

I worked a little on the packages involving ocaml.
There are few, and as you expected, they rely a lot on the ocaml 
version.

I list here the package i worked on, and the url to get the package. To 
test it, just replace the old one.
First, i updated the ocaml package, reusing some of the patches for 
configure. It works well for me, but it needs testing on other 
platforms, like darwin. I will try to do this on darwin as soon as 
possible.

OK ./lang/ocaml/Makefile.common
     http://www.loria.fr/~reilles/divers/ocaml-3.08.2.tgz

Some package required update to work smoothly. I reused mainly the old 
Makefiles.
NB: for mldonkey, i use a tgz provided by mww from darwinports, as the 
mldonkey project provides olny very old tgz, which require ocaml-3.07, 
and for unison and unison-devel, i use the same patches as in 
darwinports to get them compiling with ocaml-3.08.
OK ./converters/bibtex2html/Makefile
     http://www.loria.fr/~reilles/divers/bibtex2html-1.74.tgz
OK ./databases/geneweb/Makefile
     http://www.loria.fr/~reilles/divers/geneweb-4.10.tgz
OK ./x11/ocaml-graphics/Makefile
     http://www.loria.fr/~reilles/divers/ocaml-graphics.tgz
OK ./net/unison-devel/Makefile
     http://www.loria.fr/~reilles/divers/unison-devel.tgz
OK ./net/unison/Makefile
     http://www.loria.fr/~reilles/divers/unison.tgz
OK ./net/mldonkey/Makefile.common
     http://www.loria.fr/~reilles/divers/mldonkey-2.5.28.tgz
OK ./graphics/camlimages/Makefile
     http://www.loria.fr/~reilles/divers/camlimages-2.2.tgz
OK ./print/advi/Makefile
     http://www.loria.fr/~reilles/divers/advi-1.6.0.tgz

Those ports compile fine with the new ocaml without requesting any 
modification
OK ./math/scilab/Makefile
OK ./textproc/hevea/Makefile
OK ./www/swiftsurf/Makefile
OK ./x11/lablgtk/Makefile
OK ./x11/lablgtk2/Makefile
OK ./x11/labltk/Makefile

Those ports are listed by 'find /usr/pkgsrc -name "Makefile*" | xargs 
grep ocaml" but dont use the ocaml port, so they should work finely.
X ./devel/swig-build/Makefile
X ./devel/swig-build/Makefile.common
X ./editors/xemacs-packages/Makefile
X ./lang/caml-light/Makefile

I have not updated the coq port as far, but since it was my main 
objective for upgrading ocaml to 3.08, i will work on it soon.
KO ./lang/coq/Makefile
     to update

Please, let me know if those updates work for you, if this work is 
useful, or if i should stop right now and wait for someone smarter to 
do it.

Cheers,
Antoine
