Oh okay. Ah well, I'm doing a pure OCaml OS anyways, so we'll just
have to wait and see. Can bounds checking be disabled for just one
module?

We'll see. It'd be more like rewriting something like libmpeg2 in
ocaml I think. It'd be a damn good attempt anyways ;-)

No linking of program specific C code into OS, I'm afraid.
