If you read Allegro's FAQ (which is part of the distribution, so you
should already have it), you'll see that prior to recent Work In Progress
versions, Allegro needed a C++-capable djgpp installation to compile. This
was because the sound setup program was written using C++. So, if you have
Allegro 2.2, you'll need to download djgpp's C++ extensions (see
readme.1st for details). Or, you can download the latest Work In Progress
(WIP) version from the Allegro web site; be warned though that, being WIP
and therefore pre-alpha, it's not `supported' software (although I have
found the WIP versions to be generally reliable).
