You just need to translate the sources into vanilla OCaml using OCaml 3.09 and 
camlp4 and then it is forwards compatible:

$ mkdir trans
$ camlp4o -I ext pa_s.cmo pr_dump.cmo pr_o.cmo cursor.ml >trans/cursor.ml
$ camlp4o -I ext pa_s.cmo pr_dump.cmo pr_o.cmo ledit.ml >trans/ledit.ml
$ camlp4o -I ext pa_s.cmo pr_dump.cmo pr_o.cmo go.ml >trans/go.ml

Then you can compile the new sources (in ./trans) with OCaml 3.10:

$ cd trans
$ ocamlopt unix.cmxa cursor.ml ledit.ml go.ml -o ledit

Hey presto, new ledit binary. Ah, the beauty of camlp4. :-)
