You may want to take a look at how I built OCaml for Cygwin Ports:
http://cygwin-ports.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/cygwin-ports/ports/trunk/lang/ocaml/ http://cygwin-ports.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/cygwin-ports/ports/trunk/devel/flexdll/
(Yes, that's for 3.11.1; 3.11.2 just came out[1] and I was working on other things this week.)
The other issue to be determined is what should be (in cygport terminology) OCAML_LIBDIR. By default, this is /usr/lib/ocaml, but some distros version this in order to account for the API/ABI changes which do periodically occur. (For instance, there was such a change between 3.09 and 3.10.0, which they then undid for 3.10.1. I suppose I got what I deserved for using a .0 release.) Actually, Debian *used* to do this, but today I see that they stopped, possibly because it would be quite tedious to rebuild ALL ocaml packages for every OCaml point release. So sticking with the default may make sense, with the understanding that packages may have to periodically be rebuilt as time goes on.
