Yes, it is good to hear that.

But evidently the version that arrived on my computer with Debian isn't 
that up-to-date.  I have ocalm 4.01.0-5.  How should I go about 
replacing it with the new one; where to get the new one; other 
questions of that nature?

Or is it likely to reach Debian in a few days anyway?

Ah.  4.02.1-3 is probably the one I want, and It's already in 
Debian experimental, marked as "experimental (rc-buggy)".  I wonder if 
"release-critical-buggy" is just what they say of every package in 
"experimental" or if there's some special proble here.  I suppose I have 
to watch out for version skew with any other bits of ocaml I have lying 
around...
