I gave patching pplacer a try, but in more recent versions of OCaml
strings are byte streams, so it’s quite a bit of work to figure out
where exactly to convert strings to byte streams and back again.

I’ll keep working on this for a while, but for now I’d like to get
pplacer resurrected with 4.02 first.
