Autoconf for OCaml codebases.
ocamlconf takes a directory of OCaml files and produces a Makefile
to compile them together. You can think of it as a compiler frontend for
OCaml that targets the make backend. Under the hood, it uses
ocamldep to
build the dependency graph.

ocamlconf is distributed as a single python script. Put it anywhere
and add it to your $PATH.
