(Sorry, I replied to Christian only, initially)

Hi,

Here (http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2004-July/014575.html)
is a patch that was released for unison 2.9.20 (the current stable is
only 2.9.1-r1 on gentoo).

The reason there is a problem is that these two are external
functions, and so their names have been prefixed with 'caml_', making
them caml_format_int and caml_format_float.  To fix, simply download
the sources using emerge (don't compile), effect the changes manually
since the patch is for freeBSD and may not work on Gentoo, and
continue the compilation.  It should work then.

Regards,

Sachin.
