Whilst I can't comment on your specific problems, I have no problems
compiling 3.9.32 for DOS using DJGPP. My procedure was to

(1) remove the old library from the lib directory.
(2) remove the old headers files.
(3) rename the old allegro directory
(4) unzip the new distribution
(5) follow the intrsuctions.

This seemed to work.
