the _oasis tweak was simply to add "bisect" to the package dependencies:

...then add a dependency on camlp4 for the bisect syntax extensions in the

...then fix a couple of syntax errors that seemed to arise in lib/uri.ml where 
local module scooping seemed to break (not sure why, perhaps the syntax 
additions for bisect affect this? or perhaps it's a syntax difference between 
the byte and native compilers, but that seems like it would be a pretty serious 
bug that would've been caught... :)

...and then build the byte compiled version:

$ ocamlbuild -classic-display lib_test/test_runner.byte

running the test_runner.byte output should then generate the bisect logs which 
you can parse to html and view as per the instructions.

(there may be smarter/better ways of doing this -- i've not used bisect before.)
