If you do the OCAMLDESTDIR change, you can push the patch directly in
the rules file.

Yes.

> Good question. What's the recommendation here? The shlibs variable doesn't, for example, pick up the xenctrl.so:

I think about doing this another way: Move some libs back into /usr/lib
as libxenXXX-4.1.so, aka no ABI and into its own package. Every user of
this libs have to check the version on its own, but if people want it
broken, they can have it. Also shlibs should pick it up then.
