The new behaviour of dune is to follow the prefix given, see
[[https://dune.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage.html#destination]].
As the prefix is given, findlib is not consulted and everything is
installed directly into =out/lib=.

So I guess we have to add the flag ~--libdir=(string-append (assoc-ref
%outputs "out") "/lib/ocaml/site-lib/")~ during the install phase

Or we can keep the installation process but modify the OCAMLPATH
variable to search not in =lib/ocaml/site-lib= but in =lib/=.
