Hi,

I think the problem is with the linker programs. To fix it, try to find a
file called 'ld.exe' in your RSXNTDJ directories (probably in the 'bin'
directory, but could be in the 'patch' directory), and replace the 'ld.exe'
file in DJGPP's 'bin' directory with it. Once you've done that, re-make all
the Allegro files, and everything should work fine.

-Aaron
