You are asking too much of the assignment operator. You must
remember that Ocaml does not support operator overloading,
so you cannot define a
val (:=) : 'a ref -> 'a -> unit
and a
val (:=) : ('a * 'b) ref -> ('a * 'b) -> unit
This would require a form of "generic overloading" of (:=)
over all tuple types. This is really a little too much, I think.
BTW, are you sure you need references?
