Sorry for answering very old message. I was looking to camomile
related email and found this message.

Hello,
A few months ago I submitted a small patch to ExtLib to the UTF8 module,
adding three small but important functions
- substring
- output_uchar
- eof
Camomile do have substring (SubText module) and output_char (This is
done by CharEncoding module). I'm not sure that EoF is required.
The idea behind Camomile is that channels raise End_of_File exception
when no character is available to read. I think today most file does
not use EOF character to signify the end of file. They simply
terminates.
The patch hasn't been integrated in the ExtLib SVN (I've checked the trunk
and tags on the SVN at code.google.com).
As it's actually a patch against Camomile, (at the time I didn't know at the
time that UTF8 was taken from Camomile),
Richard Jones suggested that this is where the patch should go.
As I stated, Camomile does have things you suggested. It is different
matter whether Extlib shoud have them. This is the matter for
judgement of Extlib team.
Also maybe you could host Camomile at
forge.ocamlcore.org...
What is the benefit of it?
