OCaml 4.00.1 for Fedora 18

Unfortunately we found a bug in the code generator:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=877128
It seems likely (comment 20) that a patch which already went into
OCaml 4.00.1 upstream some months ago fixes this. However it requires
that every OCaml package be rebuilt in Fedora 18 (since all of them
potentially are using the invalid register). This isn't ideal, but I
can't see any other way around it.
I'm going to start this process, where possible just merging commits
from Rawhide to keep the git history nice and clean.
Rich.
