It's there in 20100608.  I suspect that you need to include 
$(SML_LIB)/basis/mlton.mlb in your MLB file to see the MLton structure. 
  For example:

local
   $(SML_LIB)/basis/basis.mlb
   $(SML_LIB)/basis/mlton.mlb    <------- this
   ...
in
   ...
end

For using the FFI, I suggest looking at all documentation and examples 
referenced from here:
