How are compiled record with only one non mutable field ? are they
removed ?

In Ocaml 3.05, record with only one non mutable field may be used in the
following way:

type 'a foo = 
  A of int
| B of 'a

type bar = { value : 'a.'a foo }

this means that type bar is somehow a subtype of type foo (constructor B
being removed.

then I think (but may be wrong) that an expression as

let b = { value = A 3 } could be compiled as 
let b = A 3

Is this optimization performed ? (I know this is not very important for
efficiency ... but I am just curious)
