We are in the middle of a transition. One of the changes is the location of the standards library which moves from _/usr/lib/ocaml/$(OCAML_ABI)/_ to _/usr/lib/ocaml/_. Sks FTBFS because the currently used path is no longer correct (/usr/lib/ocaml/*/native-archs). It should rely on ocamlvars.mk (which can be found in dh-ocaml) or on `ocamlc -where`. The fix is trivial. BTW, why do you `cat /usr/lib/ocaml/*/native-archs`? It seems totally useless and appears to be the only thing that caused this FTBFS.
