It does what is supposed to (act on libXXX-ocaml-dev) and it also create
substvar for libXXX-ocaml. What I can do to avoid the latter part is to
store that info somewhere (a file in debian/ perhaps) and fill the
substvar only when dh_ocaml is invoked on libXXX-ocaml. Such a behaviour
is acceptable for me. Is it for you as well?

Still, the causal requirement that dh_ocaml must be invoked first on the
-dev part remains.
