I guess, unlike Allegro, JONIPX doesn't install an at_exit function to
unload the drivers. Look at the docs, they should explain any command used
to manually unload the drivers that needs to be called anywhere your
program calls exit(), in signal handlers, and in main if it has a return.

Heh. Keep this up and Allegro will have just about everything you might
want to do on Intel machines that ANSI C by itself can't do. :)
