I think it's a bad idea to have something named "ocaml" that doesn't
implement the full upstream package. What I will do instead is:
ocaml-base for the system except camlp4
ocaml-camlp4 for camlp4
ocaml an empty helper package that depends on ocaml-base and ocaml-camlp4
I'm not sure what to name the base package: it could be ocaml-base or
ocaml-core. Is there a generally-accepted naming convention for such
cases?
