The Linux port of Allegro is somewhere around 0.01% done, so no, it
won't work yet :-) Current progress on the port consists of me
organising the makefile to build two different versions of the lib, and
putting "#ifdef DJGPP" around some of the most DOS-specific code. As you
have discovered, it is a long way away from even compiling, let alone
working properly under Linux!
