The accelleration in mesa is only under windows, and only for voodoo (not
voodoo rush), so ppphtt to that one!

Perhaps we can make a wrapper of the watcom libraries, or perhaps somehow
convert them for use in djgpp?

I'd cream my pants if we could use accelleration under djgpp- imagine what
allegro could become!
