WARNING: some purple magic is going on here. Do not take this file
as an example of how to program in OCaml.
*)
(* We make use of two special tags provided by the runtime:
[lazy_tag] and [forward_tag].
A value of type ['a Lazy.t] can be one of three things:
1. A block of size 1 with tag [lazy_tag]. Its field is a closure of
type [unit -> 'a] that computes the value.
2. A block of size 1 with tag [forward_tag]. Its field is the value
of type ['a] that was computed.
3. Anything else except a float. This has type ['a] and is the value
that was computed.
Exceptions are stored in format (1).
The GC will magically change things from (2) to (3) according to its
fancy.
We cannot use representation (3) for a [float Lazy.t] because
[caml_make_array] assumes that only a [float] value can have tag
[Double_tag].
We have to use the built-in type constructor [lazy_t] to
let the compiler implement the special typing and compilation
rules for the [lazy] keyword.
