Subject: Fwd: [Caml-list] Unix.lseek versus Pervasives.pos
Date: Mon, 17 Mar 2003 16:28:41 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9225A464-58D8-11D7-A8F0-000393942C76@ece.ucsb.edu> (raw)

Oops! That is pos_out not pos in the message below.

BTW, I did further experiments, and this seems to be a bug! The 
behaviour I reported seems to depend on what exactly I am trying to 
marshal out.
