Same result with 3.08.4, 3.09.1 and 3.09.2. I get a different error from
3.08.3 related to an incorrect include path for Xlib.h.

Please consider working on that with upstream, there had been some work for 64
bits userland ppc64 for ocaml iirc, perhaps there is some support in CVS/HEAD
or in the 3.10 beta.
Of course. I've mailed Xavier about it, and will be submitting when it's
completely ready. This is based on the new ppc64 code but that doesn't have
full PIC support, which Xavier seems to think isn't necessary on MacOS.
