Could you try this again with the OCaml 4.04.0 stack I just uploaded,

Yes, with OCaml 4.04.0 the build of unison2.49 still fails with
flexdll error: cannot relocate RELOC_REL32, target is too far:
0xfffffffc185d8b5f 0x185d8b5f
Running
rebase -b 0x06440000 /usr/lib/ocaml/stublibs/dllunix.so
rebase -b 0x06510000 /usr/lib/ocaml/stublibs/dllcamlstr.so
as before fixed the flexdll error.
Achim, I think /usr/lib/ocaml needs to be ignored by autorebase;
flexlink'ed DLLs are loaded very differently, and rebasing seems to
break them.
Then I got a different build error, but
I'll ask on the unison list about that.
Is 2.49 a stable version? It seems neither Fedora nor Debian have
packaged it. I was able to build the latest 2.48 OOTB, and 2.40 and
2.45 with this patch:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/unison240.git/tree/unison-2.40.128-ocaml-4.04.patch
The build of orpie also failed, but for a different reason. It needed
ocaml-camlp4, but when I installed that and tried again I got
ocamlopt.opt -c -pp camlp4o -I ./curses -I ./gsl -I ./units -thread
curses_assist.ml
>> Fatal error: OCaml and preprocessor have incompatible versions
Oops, it seems there were some old curr:/prev: tags on ocaml-camlp4. I
removed those, so please try again with 4.04+1-1.
