In OCaml 3.11 and later, you can call caml_page_table_add(In_static_area, start, end) to inform the run-time system that the address range [start, end) contains well-formed Caml data that polymorphic primitives can safely work on. This should solve your problem. - Xavier Leroy _______________________________________________ Caml-list mailing list.
