Alsa doesn't compile on 4.04 because of the added check for wrong usage of CAMLparam*. I've sent a PR upstream (savonet/ocaml-alsa#1).

There is a build error on OSX due to missing depexts. /cc @smimram

Wouldn't it be better to add the patch correcting the problem instead of limiting the OCaml version? Anyway, this is integrated upstream and should be fixed in next release.

@smimram As far as I know, the current policy for OPAM packages is to limit usage of patches as much as possible, and get things fixed upstream instead because in the long term it avoids a lot of duplicate work.
