Bitstring cannot be used with other syntax extensions when using ocamlfind #5

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
The package "bitstring.syntax" defines the variable "preprocessor", which
conflict with the package "camlp4" which already defines it.

For example:

$ touch foo.ml
$ ocamlfind ocamlc -syntax camlp4o -package
camlp4.macro,bitstring,bitstring.syntax -c foo.ml

fails with the following error message:

ocamlfind: No unique value for the META variable 'preprocessor': package
camlp4 defines `camlp4', package bitstring.syntax defines `camlp4of'

I attached a patch which solve the issue.

Richard, any chance you could cut a bitstring release that includes this fix? 
It requires a local META packaging patch otherwise.
