Compplugin is a module from the compiler distribution that indeed is new in
4.04.0. It is not included in ocamlcommon.cma. It is part of
ocamlbytecomp.cma, but not of ocamloptcomp.cma, and I believe that the
latter omission is a bug (as Optcompile depends on it), so maybe it should
really be in ocamlcommon.cma.

This looks like an upstream bug (in the OCaml distribution). Could you open
a Mantis issue?

As a workaround, you may be able to link to the compplugin module
separately, it is installed in the $(ocamlfind query compiler-libs)
directory.
