Yes.

About the main question, I asked this a while back. This thread should 
explain what is going on.
https://sympa-roc.inria.fr/wws/arc/caml-list/2011-02/msg00144.html

This lead me to write a small patch to glMlite, which I attach. As this 
patch is OS X specific (the current build system is targeted for Linux), 
it has not been incorporated upstream. I have not have found the time to 
do a "universal" patch yet.

Hope this helps,

Alan
