What context are you trying to use this in?  mirage-net-unix/xen just expose 
the type id=string;

    include V1.NETWORK
    with type 'a io = 'a Lwt.t
    and type     page_aligned_buffer = Io_page.t
    and type     buffer = Cstruct.t
    and type     id = string
    and type     macaddr = Macaddr.t

Are you trying to use it within a JOB functor, where it's still abstract?  I'm 
plumbing through sexpr conversion functions for that usecase -- or do you 
specifically need string for something?
