Merged in 4.02 and trunk.

Do you know about ocamlbuild/testsuite? It is really convenient to write test against in my experience. For using it, my workflow is to "opam compiler-conf reinstall" and then run the tests from the toplevel. I hope you keep contributing features to ocamlbuild lately; you should consider writing small tests to validate that they work as expected.
