Bug description

===== BROKEN CODE REPORT =====

I've experinenced two major bugs in the code that was supplied by:
http://caml.inria.fr/
The so called "stable release", has bug in the invocation of Tk instructions,
to ba accurate in one of them: Tk_PhotoPutBlock

It seems (this information wasn't checked) that newer releases of gcc (gcc GNU
compiler) comes with new header files that change the beahviour of
Tk_PhotoPutBlock function. New Tk_PhotoPutBlock function requires as input 7
arguments - not 6. If it's needed function to work as previously the 7th
parameter should be TK_PHOTO_COMPOSITE_OVERLAY. I found out that in whole
code this function is used 2 times, I was realy in need of Calm 3.06 so I
patched the code - hit new release (3.062) at
http://80-51-48-94.cable-modem.tkk.net.pl/

For more info see:
man Tk_PhotoPutBlock function (newest version avaiable bug site - read on)
http://80-51-48-94.cable-modem.tkk.net.pl/ - bug site (with fresh code)

This is constructive criticism - don't wan't to make anyone angry.

This problem is known and appears with Tk 8.4 (which was not yet
released when ocaml 3.06 was released).
The CVS version of the distribution has been fixed long ago.
You can find a patch in the archives of the caml list
http://caml.inria.fr/archives/200210/msg00628.html
or use the CVS version
