There's a fix for this bug at http://www.fungible.com/stream_fixed.ml and http://www.fungible.com/stream_fixed.mli. It's bug 1284 in the OCAML bug-tracking system. According to the benchmark given in the comments at the end of http://www.fungible.com/stream_fixed.ml, my version is essentially the same speed as the original. Unlike the original version, it does not do type-unsafe efficiency hacks. The bug database at http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs documents that bug 1284 has been ignored without comment as of 9 Dec 2003. My code is a clean solution to a problem that has been reported repeatedly, so I find that frustrating. This looks to me like a clear signal that I shouldn't bother sending them any other bugfixes. -- Tim Freeman tim@fungible.com I xeroxed a mirror.
