    I had a problem like this a couple of months ago that I never reoprted.
    Changing an action in ocamlyacc from

    foo: ... { my_ref := true; () }

    to

    foo: ... { my_ref := true }

    actually changed the behaviour of the program, from stack overflow to
    correct behaviour. At the time I couldn't get a small program illustrating
    the error, and so didn't file a bug report. I was using 2.02.

    Cheers,
    Don

    Subject: Problems with ocamlopt under windows?

    I'm wondering if other people are experiencing problems with ocamlopt under
    windows.

    I have a program that works fine as bytecode, but it runs out of stack space
    when
    compiled with ocamlopt. I'm suspecting an infinite loop.

    I can't seem to narrow down the problem for now, since changing the amount
    of print output
    masks the error.
