I decided to grab camlp5 (http://pauillac.inria.fr/~ddr/camlp5/) and
try again. The extconf.rb script succeeds now. However, now the make
fails:

ocamldep.opt  rubyOCamlUtil.ml > .depend
sh: ocamldep.opt: not found
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `.depend'

I have ocamldep, but no ocamldep.opt. Where do I go from here?

Thanks,
