Is  there  really  any  OS  stuff  that isn't addressed by the standard basis
library?

Note, the random  thing  clearly  depends  on  /dev/random  (or  more  useful
/dev/urandom)  thing  depends  on  this  file  existing  and having the right
semantics, but I just don't see that as having any thing to  do  with  MLton.
The  interface  to  the  GC  is a better case for things that make sense in a
structure called MLton.
