This is most probably not an Allegro problem, but some bug in your
program whose effect it only detected at exit.

Yes, it can, but the only person who could do that is you.  Begin by
running the `symify' utility on the crash traceback.  This will
convert it into a human-readable text which pinpoints the place where
the trouble happens.  You need to debug near that point and find the
reason for the bug.

The DJGPP FAQ list (v2/faq210b.zip from the same place you get DJGPP)
has more details about this in section 9.2.
