Well, you can't create spot files without a patched version of the compiler, which seems unreasonable to expect. You could imagine making the configure script discover if you have an ocamlspotter-capable compiler available, but I don't really know oasis well enough to do that myself.<div>

The default make setup doesn't build spot files. Perhaps we can<br>
include the -annot option as a default compiler flag, which doesn't<br>

makes it possible to jump to function definitions in core from user<br>
