1. Make sure you're running from a commandline shell (e.g. command.com
   or bash.exe) in a pseudoterminal (the so-called "DOS box").
2. When foo.exe crashes, `symify' the stack information:
   C:\SRC\FOO>symify foo.exe

You get better results from debugging tools such as gdb and symify
when you enable most warnings and debugging symbols by putting two
debugging switches right after `gcc' in your command lines:
  -Wall -g
For example:
  gcc -Wall -g  foo.c -lalleg -o foo.exe
or (if you're using lots of source files)
  gcc -Wall -g  -c foo.c
  gcc -Wall -g  foo.o -lalleg -o foo.exe
