Thanks. I've uploaded a new version which should fix it.

BTW, I was using bytecode because of the instructions here:

http://pkg-ocaml-maint.alioth.debian.org/ocaml_packaging_policy.html/x264.html

which says:

"The bytecode versions are portable. In order to spare the buildds and
the Debian archive, bytecode versions should be compiled once for all
for big packages (which either take a lot of place on disks or take a
lot of time to build)"

Looks like this needs to be updated.
