	Yes. More precisely, you cannot forward reference any symbol,
however you _can_ call forward by passing a function backward as an
argument.
[This sucks though]

	Because types in a given implementation may or may not be present
in the interface.

	IF you have a file containing ONLY types, then there is no need
to have an .ml file for it. If you have even one val (function, class),
you need the .ml file.
