I did some research - I don't know much about the gnu backend, but like you,
my conclusion was that it would be difficult to use.
There were another compiler backend project (maybe thats the BEG/BURG you
mention). I didn't keep a link because it was discontinued - I think some of
the work were continued in C--. Apart from the ones mentioned there are the
Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL) for their new .NET platform, and
there is the SML codegeneration platform named MLRisc or something - it's
actively developed and makes performance progress as I've understood. Milton
is a SML dialect that compiles to C which shows decent performance and good
portability. A problem with C is you need to control the compiler which
essentially limits you to either supporting GCC only, or hope for the best.
Personally I'd rather avoid compiling to C, but I do see the advantages,
especially when targetting special platforms.

If you are doing research, embedded languages are great, but for production
quality I'd be hesitating doing it.
Actually the camlp4 preprocessor is halfway a frontend compiler doing a mix
between embedded langauge and frontend compilation - you decide how much to
hide of the original language, and how much to add. You are still bound by
some overall semantic constructs no matter the amount of syntactic sugar.

Here they create a new syntax for OCaml that is somewhat cleaner.

I've thought about it - as I said I'd need better generic support first.
Otherwise you'll certain problems with dynamic typing.
Even with generics you'd probably have some problems but most Ruby programs
would compile and many others could be rewritten so that they would. The
generics also support dynamic typing which is crucial for supporting Ruby.
I'd say that the work the OCaml people is doing here could take many years
to accomplish in Ruby - so Ruby could be used as a cleaner OCaml syntax. A
first go would probably be a reduced Ruby grammar.

Well I'm no expert in any of the languages - it's just my immediate

Not really because it spreads on two files - it's not a C-style include
preprocessor.
On the other hand the very same feature allows you to heavily reuse code
with paramaterized types over an entire module (functors), so in that sense
it does save you some work in the long run. You also don't have to write the
..mli signature files if the types are only used within the same file. I have
been instructed "to learn to love the module system". I'm trying, and I
think that I will succeed eventually :-) I'm still very new to the language.
BTW: a very good on OCaml in french published on O'Reilly is being
translated and will eventually emerge in english online and possibly as a
book: http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/Livres/ora/DA-OCAML/index.html
