I just noticed a change in the behaviour of ocamlc that adversely 
affects a tool I maintain.

In 4.03.0 (and earlier), the -i option only applies to the .ml files 
that follow it on the command line.

In 4.04.0 (and later), the -i option applies to all .ml files on the 
command line.

Is this change in behaviour intentional?

Longer explanation
==================

Given two files.

  a.ml:
    let f x = x + 1

  b.ml:
    open A
    let g x = f x

1. In 4.03.0 (and earlier), typing either
     ocamlc a.ml -i b.ml
   or
     ocamlc -c a.ml; ocamlc a.ml -i b.ml

   prints
     val g : int -> int

   and generates
     a.cmi
     a.cmo

2. In 4.04.0 (and later), typing
     ocamlc a.ml -i b.ml

   prints
     val f : int -> int
     File "b.ml", line 1, characters 5-6:
     Error: Unbound module A    

   and does not generate anything.

3. In 4.04.0 (and later), typing
     ocamlc -c a.ml; ocamlc a.ml -i b.ml

   prints
     val f : int -> int
     val g : int -> int

   and generates
     a.cmi
     a.cmo
