parser need camlp4 since ocaml 3.04 (I think)

you have to do

# #load "camlp4o.cma"

before any [< >] expression.

This information is at least in the Change file of the caml
distribution, and also in the ocaml manual :
http://caml.inria.fr/ocaml/htmlman/manual021.html
(may be the #load "camlp4o.cma" should be add there)

this is the camlp4 revised syntax.

be aware it change a lot of thing (and not only [< and >])

# #load "camlp4r.cma"
# value foo = [: :];
