The Batteries Print module and associated syntax extension may be a
useful base for implementing something similar to what you are
proposing:

http://git.ocamlcore.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=batteries/batteries.git;a=blob_plain;f=src/core/extlib/print.ml;hb=HEAD
and
http://git.ocamlcore.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=batteries/batteries.git;a=tree;f=src/syntax/pa_strings;hb=HEAD

This allows for syntax like:
Print.printf p"This is a list of integers: %{int list}"
to return:
int list -> unit = <fun>
