With OCaml we have been prone for years with potential module namespace conflicts. Those conflicts have been thought to be solved by -pack, which nowadays is finally easy to use via ocamlbuild. Still, if using it thoroughly we are back to the square 1 of having to link everything together, then it is not a viable solution for large libraries.
