Hey Erik,

Maybe it's different on a Mac, but my Linux version of OCaml does provide 
Unix.chroot.

There is still some missing functionality that would not need 
C-dependency: the Filename module. Specifically, it ought to provide 
functions for splitting extensions (not just chopping them), 
cross-platform path normalization, absolute/relative conversion, globbing, 
recursive walking, and convenience functions for the more common stat 
tests (size, modification times, etc). IMHO. =)
