-fsmall-toc to enable the previous behaviour.
(David Allsopp, report by Nathaniel Wesley Filardo, review by Xavier Leroy)
### Language features
- #8820, #9166: quoted extensions: {%foo|...|} is lighter syntax for
[%foo {||}], and {%foo bar|...|bar} for [%foo {bar|...|bar}].
(Gabriel Radanne, Leo White, Gabriel Scherer and Pieter Goetschalckx,
request by Bikal Lem)
- #7364, #2188, #9592, #9609: improvement of the unboxability check for types
with a single constructor. Mutually-recursive type declarations can
now contain unboxed types. This is based on the paper
https://arxiv.org/abs/1811.02300
(Gabriel Scherer and Rodolphe Lepigre,
review by Jeremy Yallop, Damien Doligez and Frédéric Bour)
- #1154, #1706: spellchecker hints and type-directed disambiguation
for extensible sum type constructors
(Florian Angeletti, review by Alain Frisch, Gabriel Radanne, Gabriel Scherer
and Leo White)
- #6673, #1132, #9617: Relax the handling of explicit polymorphic types.
This improves error messages in some polymorphic recursive definition,
and requires less polymorphic annotations in some cases of
mutually-recursive definitions involving polymorphic recursion.
(Leo White, review by Jacques Garrigue and Gabriel Scherer)
- #9232: allow any class type paths in #-types,
For instance, "val f: #F(X).t -> unit" is now allowed.
(Florian Angeletti, review by Gabriel Scherer, suggestion by Leo White)
### Standard library:
- #9077: Add Seq.cons and Seq.append
