The patch looks basically fine. I'm not sure, however, whether test -n / test -s is portable. Maybe someone with more experience with portable shell programming could have a look.

With respect to my comment: The path to the resume file was changed to $HOME/dune.resume because some guys thought their dune build directory should not be writeable. The possibility to read the resume file name from the opts file was introduced later.

Anyway, I think your idea is definitely an improvement. However, after applying your patch, users might be surprised that the resume feature does not work by default. Maybe we should print a warning in this case?
