The typescript shows the following error: ocamlmklib -L./../../Programs -lbrlapi -oc brlapi_stubs brlapi_stubs.o ** Fatal error: Cannot find file "libgcc_s" libgcc_s ships with gcc4 only, so it looks like ocaml depends on gcc4 now, probably since its recent update. You may not need the OCaml bindings being built there though. I see you can disable them with the --disable-caml-bindings configure option.
