Indeed, the build just now worked out of the box, both text and gui, 
after a make clean.
Sorry for the noise.

Still I had errors when first compiling that looked very much like 
'wrong SDK'...
but I guess they must have been related to ocaml 3.11 then. I managed to 
build a gui version with 3.11 by applying the above changes, but I had 
to downgrade to version 3.10.2 anyway to avoid the 'child process' bug 
in 3.11.
