The reason that I do not simply build a program directly is that the my ultimate goal is to include this library into a large existing system written in OCaml, so the final linking must be done by Ocaml. > > I now realize C:BUILDER and C:MAKE-BUILD might need another target, > something like :standalone-lib or :standalone-dll, where one would simply > specify the name of the library and its initialization function and it would > do the rest.
