If you're using a recent version of Allegro, this message shouldn't
appear; I believe it was caused by Allegro's timer handler. Now Allegro
detects when it is running in Windows, and installs a much lower
resolution (5ms) timer instead. I'm not sure what version this was
introduced in; if your allegro.h mentions `i_love_bill' then you already
have this version.
