Build Issue

[bbrietzke]

Was trying to build the package, when I get the following:

make -C src
echo compatability.ml headers.ml http_header.ml http_method.ml http_status.ml netstring.ml request.ml response.ml server.ml | perl -pe 's/ /\n/g'  | perl -pe 's/^./\U$&/g' | sed -e "s/\.ml//g" | grep -v myocamlbuild | sort > scgi.mlpack
ocamlbuild -tag debug scgi.cma scgi.cmxa
+ /usr/local/bin/ocamlopt.opt unix.cmxa -I /usr/local/lib/ocaml/ocamlbuild /usr/local/lib/ocaml/ocamlbuild/ocamlbuildlib.cmxa myocamlbuild.ml /usr/local/lib/ocaml/ocamlbuild/ocamlbuild.cmx -o myocamlbuild
File "myocamlbuild.ml", line 12, characters 4-76:
Error: This expression has type Lexing.lexbuf
       but an expression was expected of type
         Ocamlbuild_pack.Loc.source = string
Command exited with code 2.
Compilation unsuccessful after building 1 target (0 cached) in 00:00:00.
make[1]: *** [all] Error 10
make: *** [src] Error 2

Was wondering if you could provide some insight as to what is generating the error.

@crazykt : It's a problem with ocamlbuild version 4.02. This repository builds fine on ocaml version 4.01, but not 4.02, because something has changed in the format of how ocamlbuilds are specified. Maybe one day I'll understand ocamlbuild and be able to help fix it.

I just wasted an hour here since @bbrietzke just pulled a DenverCoder9... Hope this helps anyone in the future! http://xkcd.com/979/

@arjunravinarayan : Thanks, I was able to build it with ocamlbuild version 4.01.
