It should be a simple matter of copying %{_bindir}/ocaml and %{_bindir}/ocamllex into boot/ before building. (Of course the package will then BuildRequire ocaml). Could you file a bug so I don't forget about this?
Thanks for filing it. It was fixed in Rawhide and F29: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ocaml/c/8f288a07f3f14d0415138c013f46e082c83cfcdf?branch=master It's not very clear if you actually want this to be fixed in F28, but I'll assume not for now.
