Interestingly enough, and possibly relevant to the tabs/spaces discussion,
ViewCVS shows no changes in the "diff to previous" for this revision:

http://mlton.org/cgi-bin/viewsvn.cgi?rev=3938&view=rev

Speaking of Emacs stuff in SVN:

1) Any objection to adding 
     (provide 'sml-mlton)
   or some such to mlton.el?  I like adding "(require 'sml-mlton)" to my 
   sml-mode-hook.

2) With our new-found ability to move files with history, should we start 
   a doc/emacs directory?

There are no small (S) MLton contributors. ;-)
