CamlinternalMod contains an optimisation for the initialisation
of recursive modules containing closures, where dummy closures
are updated in-place. This optimisation was buggy on bytecode,
since the bytecode interpreter relies on the lengths of blocks
containing closures (see #4008).
This commit disables the optimisation for bytecode (where it
had much less effect than on native code, and where performance
is of less concern anyway). The optimisation is still applied
on native-code, but without the use of Obj.truncate.
Also adds a test for #4008 (which introduced the truncate).
This commit removes support for gprof-based profiling (the -p option to ocamlopt). It follows a discussion on the core developers' list, which indicated that removing gprof support was a reasonable thing to do. The rationale is that there are better easy-to-use profilers out there now, such as perf for Linux and Instruments on macOS; and the gprof support has always been patchy across targets. We save a whole build of the runtime and simplify some other parts of the codebase by removing it.
- Treat as an error the case where ~finally raises an exception
- Move to Fun module
- Describe the purpose in the documentation
- Remove boilerplate

Without this patch, make -j often fails to build the stdlib with
a message along the lines of:
no cmx file was found in path for module CamlinternalLazy
The issue is that stdlib files that use `lazy` actually depend on
camlinternalLazy.cmi because matching.ml expands lazy pattern
matches to code that refers to CamlinternalLazy. However, since
this dependency does not appear in the source code, there is no
way for ocamldep to discover it. This means that when building
the stdlib, there is no constraint ensuring that CamlinternalLazy
is built before stdlib modules using Lazy.
This causes issues with parallel make, but the issue can be
reproduced using a sequential make invocation:
cd stdlib
make clean
make stdlib_stream.cmo
This patch adds a dependency on CamlinternalLazy into lazy.mli.
Its presence makes ocamldep see that all files that use Lazy also
depend on camlinternalLazy.cmi.
* Add an Extension_constructor submodule to Obj.
Deprecate top-level functions extension_constructor / extension_name /
extension_id.
* Add 'true' and 'false' to the definition of Bool.t
* Add aliases for the built-in 'list' and 'array' types.
* Add an alias for 'exn' to Printexc.
* Changes entry: built-in type aliases

* Add paths for built-in exceptions.
- inline Pervasives in Stdlib and re-add Pervasives as a deprecated
module that aliases all elements of Stdlib except the stdlib modules.
- remove special case for Stdlib.Pervasives in printtyp.ml
It has been deprecated since 2000, shown a deprecation warning
since 4.02, and Sort.merge is documented to have undefined behavior
when the lists being merged are not sorted in the first place.

Except for the Camlinternal* modules and the new Stdlib module, all
modules in the stdlib now compile to Stdlib__<module>.
Pervasives is renamed to Stdlib and now contains a list of aliases
from the long names to the short ones, so that from inside and outside
the stdlib we can refer to the standard modules as just List or
Stdlib.List rather than Stdlib__list.
In order to avoid printing the long names in error messages and in the
toplevel, the following heuristic is added to Printtyp: given a path
Foo__bar, if Foo.Bar exists and is a direct or indirect alias to
Foo__bar, then prefer Foo.Bar.
A bootstrap step was required to replace Pervasives by Stdlib as the
module opened by default.
This commit moves:
- config/m.h to byterun/caml/m.h
- config/s.h to byterun/caml/s.h
Consequently, m.h and s.h now get installed alongside other
OCaml header files.
This commit also updates the .depend files, introducing updates in the
dependencies which are not consequences of this commit itself.
and make the Uchar independent from the Format and Printf
modules. Previously this made it impossible to use the type in the
natural habitat that the String, Bytes and Buffer modules could be.
To break the circular dependency between Bigarray and Unix, a CamlinternalBigarray module was added to the stdlib. This module defines all the types used by the compiler to produce optimized code for bigarrays.
Thanks to David Allsopp for fixing Windows tests.
After applying this patch, you should run:
make library-cross
make promote-cross
make partialclean
make ocamlc ocamllex ocamltools
and then immediately apply the following patches until the "second
part of Benoît Vaugon's format+gadts patch"; the bootstrap cycle is
not finished yet.

Noticed that I had to bootstrap to test on ARM, so I commit a new bootstrap
compiler.
