 I could have even write:

# let test t t' = match t, t' with
  | _, Toto 0 | Toto 0, _ -> "OK"
  | _ -> "KO";;

 The point is that my example is extracted from a "serious" project
where I wrote something like:

| ((Toto _ | Titi _), Toto x | Toto x, (Toto _ | Titi _)) when f(x) = 0
-> ...

 and where type toto has more than 2 constructors.

 Cheers,

 Sébastien.
