Summary

0005126: ocamlnat crashes if a library is loaded and then an unknown symbol is entered

Description

After the start of ocamlnat if I enter an unknown symbol, everything
is OK:
# foobar;;
Characters 0-6:
foobar;;
^^^^^^
Error: Unbound value foobar

Buf if I load some library, for example by the following code:
# #load "nums.cmxa";;
# include Num;;
a fatal error occurs and ocamlnat exits if I enter an unknown symbol:
# foobar;;
Fatal error: exception Sys_error("caml_startup: No such file or
directory")
kxenator@linux:~>
For known symbols it works:
# string_of_num (power_num (Int 10) (Int 10));;
- : string = "10000000000"

Notes
(0008028) frisch (developer) 2012-09-06 19:14	ocamlnat is not officially supported, and no core developer is motivated to work on it these days. We can integrate a contributed patch, though.
