Hello...

I recently got Allegro 2.1, and am trying to build it (hopefully without
needing to compile each piece manually).  I'm using DJGPP 2.01, and did
not forget to use "-d" while unzipping Allegro.

While trying to build Allegro 2.1, make stops on bank.o, complaining
that there is no rule defined with which to compile it.  There *is* a
rule defined, for all .S files in general, but make seems to ignore that
rule.  I have checked several times to make sure that all of the spaces
are compressed to tabs where appropriate.  If I change the "%.S" in the
makefile to "%.s" (lower case), make tries to build bank.o but refuses
to compile the long #defines in the file src/bank.s (it seems to not
understand the backslash at the end of each line).

Do I possibly need to disable LFN support while building Allegro?  What
else could be wrong?  Anyone had similar problems?
