Hi,

the version of ocaml in ports is just really old.
Forget about running 4.05 on aarch64, I don't think it has the required support at all.

You can apply my 4.11 patch from
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=250408

I've also uploaded a patch for some of the broader ocaml ecosystem but lots more work needs to be done to update all of it.
