 Hello,
 I tried to install wyrd yesterday and it halted in configure when checking
 the OCAML version. It is looking for 3.0.8 or greater, but the logic in
 configure.in looks weird. (I don't know bash testing logic well, though.)

 Here's the error section from the log:
 {{{
 ...

 }}}

 I installed macports autoconf, tried to sensibly alter the OCAML version
 checking in configure.in, but didn't succeed. I then commented the OCAML
 version checking logic in configure.in, ran autoconf, and then re-ran port
 install wyrd. It appears to have worked.
