[SVN] OCaml bug report

[David Powers]

This is because the OCaml compiler has the same behavior.  If you try
to compile:

let main () =
  Printf.printf "foo"   (* this "is a comment *)
;;

let () = main ()

you will get:

ocamlfind ocamlc -o /tmp/ocaml3nhkjj -I
/opt/local/godi/lib/ocaml/std-lib/threads -package '' -linkpkg str.cma
unix.cma threads.cma /tmp/ocamlGOEucv.ml 2>&1
File "-", line 2, characters 24-26:
This comment contains an unterminated string literal
