Yes, these are known problems. We're starting to work on getting xapi to 
build with opam. You may want to check out Dave's wiki post on building 
xenopsd: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Building_Xenopsd

Fixing this kind of stuff has been my new year's resolution, but I 
haven't had time to start work on it just yet. There are a bunch of 
other people in the office who feel the same way (especially Dave Scott, 
Jon Ludlam and James Bulpin), so I have a feeling things will get easier 
pretty soon.
Are you on #xen-api on Freenode? If you've got questions about ocaml or 
xapi, feel free to ask them there. There are usually a few xapi devs in 
there during UK business hours.
