People on this list will reasonably assume you're using Objective Caml unless you say otherwise - this should have been at the top of your original post. I don't know and don't have access to an installation of caml light but looking at http://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-caml-light/node3.9.html it would appear to me as though type abbreviations (which is what you're doing) need == in Caml Light: type menu == (string*string) list;; ... but I may well be wrong.
