Don't compile Allegro with RHIDE. In the Allegro directory there is a file called
MAKEFILE. This means that if you go to that directory in DOS prompt and type MAKE,
Allegro will be compiled.

Note that Allegro doesn't come with the game library pre-compiled. To compile an
Allegro program, you need to link it with liballeg.a (using -lalleg). However if this
file does not exist, you have problems. The makefile takes all the source files and
compiles them into the library, then compiles all the example programs.
