That's interesting idea, could you give more informations about the goal of
your project ?

Actually you just need to declare in IO.ml the C externals to caml channels
functions and hide them in the mli so they can't be used directly. Have a
look at pervasives.ml and .mli sources to see how ocaml is doing.
