Subject: Use camlp4 to accept some specific non-exhaustive patterns in
 groebner

 The camlp4 extension "refutpat" provides a syntax let* for pattern
 that are non-exhaustive on purpose (e.g. let* x::l = foo in ...).
 A Failure is raised if the pattern doesn't match the expression.

+(** * Non-irrefutable patterns
+
+    This small camlp4 extension creates a "let*" variant of the "let"
+    syntax that allow the use of a non-exhaustive pattern. The typical
+    usage is:
+        
+      let* x::l = foo in ...
+
+    when foo is already known to be non-empty. This way, no warnings by ocamlc.
+    A Failure is raised if the pattern doesn't match the expression.
