Sorry, I'm a newbie and I don't know how to look up
"macports changeset ocaml 3.09 corresponds to"
at the url given in this post.

I also found another related post:

http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-users/2007-April/ 
002745.html

but again I don't know what to do to
"find the source of the old portfile"
in the repository browser.

Thanks,
Dimitri
