Hi,

I'm not an expert at all with OCamlMakefile, but I guess that comes from
the fact the compiler embeds Str in both libraries "a.cma" and "b.cma".
Doing it by hand:

$ ocamlc -a -o a.cma a.ml
$ ocamlc -a -o b.cma b.ml
$ ocamlc -o a.out str.cma a.cma b.cma test.ml

You don't need to give "str" as Lib when generating your libraries, only
when producing your executable :-) If you give str.cma when generating your
libraries:

$ ocamlc -a -o a.cma str.cma a.ml
$ ocamlc -a -o b.cma str.cma b.ml
$ ocamlc -o a.out a.cma b.cma test.ml
  File "b.cma(Str)", line 1:
  Warning 31: files b.cma(Str) and a.cma(Str) both define a module named Str
