Sorry, my feeling is that, by now, the meta-programming core of
metaocaml is stable enough to be merged into Objective Caml. I guess I
should have stated that.
To maintain Objective Caml's competitiveness with GHC, which has
Template Haskell, this seems to be an obvious thing to do -- especially
since I personally consider metaocaml to be superior to TH.
