Packager notes:
- see http://yquem.inria.fr/pipermail/jocaml-list/2009-February/000105.html
  for packaging discussions with upstream

- using standard find-provides/find-requires rather than Ocaml's, because the
  latter outputs internal modules that mostly duplicate Ocaml's, which could
  potentially mean that installing an Ocaml library would pull in Jocaml
instead
  of Ocaml.

- This JoCaml is configured with a companion Ocaml, meaning it fallbacks to
using
  the Ocaml-provided library if a particular JoCaml library is not present.
Thus
  most of the standard library have been stripped out (again, to avoid
dependency
  confusion). Because JoCaml skips from 3.10.0 to 3.11.0, that means this
package
  has to be tested using Rawhide's Ocaml.

- This is tested with the JoCaml ray tracer:
  http://jocaml.inria.fr/pub/joex/JoCamlsRUs.tar.gz

  Upstream promises to provide a test suite that can be used to verify that our
  stripped JoCaml is still functional; will test against it when it arrives.
