I'd be suprised if that was the case. Any problems with vsync would have
been sorted out a long time ago.

This is the `standard' method of waiting for the vertical retrace (I would
think Allegro will be similar if not the same). Try it and see if this
works.

void vsync () {
  while (inportb (0x3DA) & 8);
  while (! (inportb (0x3DA) & 8));
}
