Thank you!

It was entirely my fault - $OCAMLLIB was set to the wrong value (my
system's setup, nothing to do with GODI).

After seeing the error message in ocargs.log (something about a
corrupted .cma file), I set OCAMLLIB=/prefix/godi/lib/ocaml/std-lib
and it worked (with a complete rebuild in the middle, because I had
last build the MinGW version, and I expect I'll have more luck with
the Cygwin-dependent one for now).

Thankyou very much for your time, and for creating this excellent
build system. :)
