I don't know how to solve this automatically. findlib always gives problem as install some META files if they are not already present. The solution I have adopted is to emerge -C findlib, emerge the new ocaml and the emerge again findlib. Ideas to fix this automatically are welcomed

For now, the status quo isn't good, and we should mask again until this is figured out.
