Hi Jan,

Though I agree with you in principle for the value of the quick win (as
you'll remember ;-), it might interest you to know that the Ocaml guy are
no longer "in the cold" since I provided them with a patch to their glue
code so that they now call Tcl 8.x-idiomatically instead of using a soon to
be deprecated antipattern. No idea how far that patch went into the Ocaml
codebase review though.
