ocaml and mldonkey failed to compile [solved]

I've tried to compile mldonkey-2.8.1 and it failed. I know there is a version in AUR, but I need to compile this myself. I'm using gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.5-2 and ocaml-3.09.3.
The output is:

Now execute 'make' to start compiling. Good luck!

To compile a static code execute:     make mlnet.static
To produce a release tarball execute: make release.mlnet.static
To clean the build directory execute: make maintainerclean

Maybe the problem is in ocaml... so I've tried to recompile ocaml-3.09.3. But this also failed. The output of './configure -prefix /usr -verbose':

hasgot.c:1:25: error: mach-o/dyld.h: No such file or directory

It looks like ocaml has issues with linking to libraries, but I don't know how to solve this. Anyone else have this same problem?

You should take a look at the way they compile it on AUR, and you'll see what are you doing wrong

That's the first thing I did when my own PKGBUILD failed to build the package. But the result is the same.

Re: ocaml and mldonkey failed to compile [solved]

These problems started after I repartition my harddisks. I had to remove certain paths to a new partition on a new harddisk because some of these partitions were almost full.

On an other forums (1,2) I've fread that /usr/lib (and maybe also other paths) SHOULD NOT BE SOFTLINKED!!!

Now everything works fine again
