See my recent post to the list, subject-line mentioning ocaml.

I've been running with these changes and they seem stable.  I had one
bout of BDB corruption but (1) db_recover fixed it and (2) it hasn't
reoccurred so I'm starting to think that it's just coincidental timing.

If you're not building with the 4.02.whatever ocaml then read the
messages in the thread, see the other branch which had those changes and
generate a patch from the commits only in the opt-long-keyids branch.

It would have to be a new release.  Someone actually experienced with
ocaml needs to look at my changes and decide which are safe to pull in.
