IMHO if you are using Allegro 3.x then do not even try to look at what
the problem is go and get an upgrade from the URL below.

What you are seeing is the end of a series of errors. You need to find
that start of the errors to try to find out the real problem.

Use redir.exe to redirect the output to a file and then analyse the
file to see why your setup is failing. 

Can you build a simple hello world program? This will check that you
have got the compiler working correctly to an extent.

If you are using W2K or XP please check that you are using the latest
versions of the zips that you downloaded. A few of the packages (zips)
dated before 1-Dec-2001 are not compatible with W2k or XP due to W2K
and XP low level API bugs.

Check that you are usign Allegro 4.01 (http://alleg.sourceforge.net),
Rhide 1.5.0 (www.rhide.com)  snapshot, DJGPP 2.04 and GCC 3.04 or
later.
