+    Bytecode programs which are compiled by <code>ocamlc -custom</code> must not be stripped. In particular, their package should be excluded from the <filename>dh_strip</filename> script. When compiled this way, an elf executable is generated containing the ocaml interpreter, and the bytecode of the program in a section which is removed when the program is stripped. For more information, see the bug <ulink url="http://bugs.debian.org/256900">256900</ulink>. An override for the lintian warning is considered as acceptable in this situation.
