Bug description

boot/ocamlc has version 3.11.*, it doesn't understand -strict-sequence, so compilation under win32/mingw fails with:

=============================
../boot/ocamlrun ../boot/ocamlc -strict-sequence -g -warn-error A -nostdlib ./Compflags pervasives.cmi -c pervasives.mli
../boot/ocamlc: unknown option `-strict-sequence'.

if we skip this error by removing "-strict-sequence" from Makefiles, we get errors with "Module.(expr)" syntax (substring "Longident.(" in typing/*.ml), for example:

=============================
Ppat_construct
(Longident.(Ldot (Lident "predef", "Some")),
Some {ppat_loc = default_loc; ppat_desc = Ppat_var "sth"},
false)},

and there are more errors, I'll report them in next issues.
