Can anyone tell me what's going wrong here?

Computer: running win xp/sp2 on amd 64
ocamlopt: 3.09.0
ms files: from visual studio 6

I try the following (the smallest independent part of the Hevea distribution):

==== non verbose =====


C:\ProgramFiles\OCaml\hevea\hevea-1.09\native> 
c:\ProgramFiles\ocaml\bin\ocamlopt  -c bibhva.ml

This link failure (with the same unresolved externals message) 
appears for all other parts of the hevea distribution too, so it 
seems that something is going wrong with any attempt to link.



There's an earlier message on the list to the effect that VC6 isn't 
usable with the most recent ocaml distribution: is this really true?

There's also a remark in the most recent ocaml bugfix release to the 
effect that something is being fixed specifically for the AMD chip : 
could that be the problem?


Any help very gratefully received!
