Yes, I remember when discussing the patch adding camlboot and
ocaml4.07-boot. :-)  That's what you explained [1].

Well, a direct bootstrap camlboot -> ocaml-4.13 is better for sure,
but harder.  Instead, my question is: have you tried a chain of
boostrap: camlboot -> ocaml-4.07 -> ? -> ocaml-4.13.  I could be
temporary solution waiting camlboot improvements, no?
