I believe the situation would be very similar with a version of 
bitstring based on extension_points.  A system of namespaces allowing to 
access components from the stdlib explicitly (even if shadowed by Core) 
would solve the issue, but this is not directly related to extension_points.

Btw, bitstring would be an interesting use case for extension_points, 
and looking at pa_bitstring.ml, it seems porting should not be too 
difficult. Any volunteer?
