The "r2" suffix confuses the zip picker:
v2gnu/bsn241br2.zip

That should be bsn241r2b.zip to follow the convention.  The *last* letter
of the basename should be [bsdl] for (binaries,sources,documentation,libraries).

> 2). Allegro is given as "all422d.zip" (isn't that only documentation?).

Same problem.

> 3). GRX is given as "grx249s.zip" (isn't that only sources?).

Same problem.

> 4). I don't know (or remember) why "Assembler" is even an option.

It just adds a note that assembler files end in .S
