Thanks, this is a relief! I was a little worried about the impact of the new autoconf changes. I'll try this out over the next few days |

I'm going ahead and merging this as it cant cause any harm while the new ocaml betas are being rolled :-) |

supports forthcoming dune support as part of mirage/mirage#969: * Add support for OCaml 4.08 (mirage/mirage-platform#206 by @anmonteiro) * `libxenasmrun.a` is symlinked in the ocaml directory in order to be able to use ocamlopt's `-runtime-variant` option. * Expose flags through files as well as pkg-config (mirage/mirage-platform#205 by @TheLortex). Instead of pkg-config, one can use the following files to get compilation flags: * mirage-xen-ocaml/libs * mirage-xen-ocaml/cflags * mirage-xen-posix/minios-cflags * mirage-xen-posix/minios-libs * mirage-xen-posix/posix-cflags * mirage-xen-posix/posix-libs With dune this allows us to write `%{lib:mirage-xen-posix:posix-libs}` to get the flags instead of having a script invoking `pkg-config mirage-xen-posix --libs`.

This is still very early days, but I thought I'd get a head start to see how hard it would be to also support OCaml 4.08.X in
mirage-xen-ocaml.Turns out not very hard. Apart from
asmrunandbyterunbeing merged into a single directory upstream, no other changes seem to be necessary.Word of caution: I haven't actually built a unikernel yet with these changes, given that so many dependencies aren't ready for 4.08 yet.
