You sure your DJGPP installation is correctly setup and that it did not get
corrupted somehow? I once had a similar problem that was caused by me
mucking about in assembly using NASM. I crashed the whole 'Doze95 system,
and on restart scandisk complained some kinda message I cannot remember
about my DJGPP directory. After that, trying to compile ANYTHING exhibited
much the same error messages you have above. Careful examination of the
header files that are standard with the compiler revealed differences in
just one of the .H files that were included with DJGPP that are linked when
you include, hmm, wat it stdio? Anyway, I fixed them (had a copy of the
undamaged STDIO on hand) but still GCC would not work - the eventual
solution was to wipe my whole DJGPP directory, reinstall from backups, and
reinstall my C directory from backups. BTW the "corruption" was that the
name of one of the headers linked was misspelt "somehow" - but there were
other errors in other headers too that I did not even look at when I
realised how far the damage went.

So - you been playing with any assembly lately? Had a solid cold reboot
crash inside a DJGPP program? This seems to be very rare (having a DJGPP
program crash and in so doing damage the DJGPP substructure and has never
happend since in a year of almost daily coding (and crashing) DJGPP
programs) since I read here daily and have never seen somebody else (except
you) having the same problem.

Many of your error lines tho seem to be caused tho by the compiler not being
able to find Allegro's header file - you sure this is in your \include dir?

Hope this helped some!
