I looked at what is going on in this example. I think that the problem is that a domain gets descheduled in the middle of an STW section; other domains...

@samwgoldman yes, but in my experience running benchmark on my personal machine (with various processes opened on the side), this hasn't occurred in practice. I think that was is going...

This is fairly strange. The command that appears to be failing is `mkdir -p tmp` (creating a `tmp` repository in the current directory, if it does not already exist). I...

@gares , I opened an issue in the OCaml bugtracker [#7050](http://caml.inria.fr/mantis/view.php?id=7050) to be able to pass command-line arguments for the OCaml compiler in a file, to avoid argv size limitations....

The internal function to do this is `Configuration.parse_{string,file}`, but it is not exposed from signatures.mli so that would be `Ocamlbuild_pack` material. You could also mutate `Options.tag_lines` which can start with...

Either `Before_options` or `After_options` should be fine. (Other places should work or not depending on the kind of tags you add this way; if you add a `traverse` tag after...

My proposal is to explicit the fact that OCamlbuild works on a virtual abstraction of the "project tree", not only the filesystem sub-hierarchy at hand. Currently this virtual project tree...

> IIUC, this would only let you specify the content of these files in a different place, which perhaps you find more convenient. Yes (but if you have suggestion for...

I think the `ocamlbuild -documentation` output answers your question. It says: ``` rule "target files" ~deps:[ %.itarget ] ~prods:[ %.otarget ] ~doc:"If foo.itarget contains a list of ocamlbuild targets, asking...

Your point on the symlinks thing is well-taken. I'll have to maybe pick another example, or conveniently silence that part of the build rule (it's ok to simplify). At the...
