This form used to produce Pstr_eval instead of Pstr_let. This would
probably come as a suprise for people matching on the Parsetree (e.g.
for a ppx). This special case is now removed.
To avoid a (probably harmless) regression in bytecode, the compilation
of "let _ = ..." bindings (including local ones) is optimized to remove
a useless introduction of a variable (which would occupy a stack slot
otherwise).
The source code printer (-dsource) now prints Pstr_eval as ";;expr",
which should always be ok. One could avoid ";;" at the beginning of
the structure, but since it is allowed, it is probably not worth adding
complexity here.
Translate [%ocaml.extension_constructor <path>] to the
runtime-representation of the extension constructor denoted by
<path>. This allows one to get the extension constructor without
having to create a dummy value.
From comments in typedtree.mli:
When introduced in 2000, this [type] enabled a more efficient code
generation for optional arguments. However, today the information is
redundant as labels are passed to [transl_apply] too. Could be cleaned
up.
- float
- int32
- int64
- nativeint
Not for int because the comparison is done directly on the untagged version.
Useful mainly for floats since they can be stored unboxed in records or arrays.
Adding [@unboxed] (resp [@untagged]) on a primitive argument means
that the argument must passed unboxed (resp untagged) to the external
function. Adding [@unboxed] (resp [@untagged]) on the result means
that the external function returns its result unboxed (resp untagged).
The unboxing (resp untagging) method is derived from the type.
Currently unboxing is suported for: float, int32, int64 and nativeint.
Untagging is supported for int.
This patch also increases the cm{i,o,a,x,xa} magic numbers as the type
Primitive.description is changed.

This should cover all places involving filenames in the compiler.
There are a few more paths still using Latin-1 in other ways,
e.g. in ocamldoc.

This commit introduces a new syntax for index operators.
Six core parenthesis operator are added:
.(), .[], .{}, .{,}, .{,,}, .{,..,}.
The .{,}/.{,,}/.{,,,} operators are defined for compatibility with the Bigarray syntax extension.
Each core index operator is available in a access/assignement versions. For instance, .() is declined in
* .() : index operator
* .()<- : indexed assignment operator
The general syntax for these index operators as implemented in the parser is index_operator::= index_operator_core [<-]
