Sure, it's named "/usr/bin/ocaml" :-)

Try this script:

  #!/usr/bin/ocamlrun /usr/bin/ocaml
  print_endline "Hello, world!"

You can use all toplevel directives so you can also use libraries that
support dynamic loading. BTW, if you want to use a library that doesn't
support dynamic loading you have to use a relinked ocaml interpreter or
you will be in trouble.

Maybe I've misunderstood your question ...

Cheers.
