Is this problem already known to the developers of ocaml-ocamlnet? If not, please report it to them.

There is no need to inform the maintainers. The version in macports is outdated. In the upstream version is 3.7.6 and the affected line is as follows:

As recommended by RFC 2045, the characters [!#$\@[]^`|{}~]

So it is not affected by this particular bug. We can either apply the proposed patch or consider updating to the current version of ocamlnet.

3 months later and the package is still not compiling even though a fix is avalable. Is there a reason why?
