The Val_* functions potentially allocate new values on the OCaml heap, and may trigger an iteration of the OCaml GC. Therefore, it is important to assign values produced by Val_* immediately to variables declared with CAMLlocal macros, which register the values with the GC. This leads to slightly weird looking C code, but avoids hard to find segfaults.
