ocaml: 3.12.1-1 missing HAS_SOCKETS

[Yaakov (Cygwin/X)]

Damien,

There is a problem with the Unix library in the new ocaml-3.12.1-1:

$ ocaml
        Objective Caml version 3.12.1

# #load "unix.cma" ;;
Exception: Invalid_argument "inet_addr_of_string not implemented".

Looking at the sources[1], it seems you compiled ocaml without
HAS_SOCKETS.  This needs to be fixed and 3.12.1-2 released ASAP.

In particular, this commit[2] needs to be reversed, although I don't
know if that is the cause.  While you're at it, you could fix the
false negative in the bfd detection[3] by adding -lintl to the
libraries in the second hasgot test.
