I’m having trouble getting started with ocaml-vchan (which I understand is a part of the larger MirageOS project). 

I cloned the repo https://github.com/mirage/ocaml-vchan, and have run

ocaml setup.ml -configure

ocaml setup.ml -build

ocaml setup.ml -install

However, none of these commands generated a ‘xencat’ binary as demonstrated in the example in Readme.md. 

Am I missing a step?

It appears that xencat is compiled only when the "xenctrl" configure flag is set:

https://github.com/mirage/ocaml-vchan/blob/f33d17a7d851817647655de40cef5092595e2538/_oasis#L68

Locally I was able to "./configure --xenctrl=true" and "make" -- then a "xencat.native" binary appeared in the ocaml-vchan directory.

hth,
