Using the instructions in allegro/build/mingw32, everything seems to work 
until I get to type "make", at which point:

export ALLEGRO_USE_CYGWIN=1
export MINGDIR=/usr/local
user AT machine /allegro
$ make
Please specify your MinGW32 directory via MINGDIR=
See the docs/build/mingw32.txt file!

This is with the two export lines in etc/profile (I put them below the two 
pre-existing export lines), and after all the previous steps reported 
success. (The fix.sh reported, near the end, a bunch of errors with _tmpdir 
"permission denied" but then reported success on exit.)

The all401.zip was unpacked into c:\cygwin, which is where cygwin was 
installed (the default location). AFAICT, and as far as the documentation 
indicates, it *should* be working.
