Reason: A new interface to OCaml

Can be shortened to

    let (|>) x f = "%apply"

which utilises some language magic and is probably faster.

At risk of being pedantic, that's actually shorter. It also doesn't work, at least on the version of OCaml I'm familiar with. In order to invoke that particular bit of "language magic", you'd have to declare it external and explicitly give its type:

    external (|>) : 'a -> ('a -> 'b) -> 'b = "%revapply"

Also, `%apply` is usually the `@@` operator. For `|>`, one would expect `%revapply`.
