This one has annoyed me for a couple of days. I have read and read this group
for a couple of days. And I've checked the archives and the FAQ (which everyone
is insistent on doing but nobody else has actually read it).

To get this to compile copy the files in <djgpp-dir>\lib\gcc-lib\djgpp\2.80 to
<djgpp-dir>\bin

then re-run make.

See...readme files arn't always that great.

Hope this is of some help to others who are trying to get Allegro to compile.
Which by the amount of reading is a lot of people.

btw: I'm new to DJGPP
