Committed r57458 to make it get further. It's using QuickDraw though, so it's still not going to build.

[harbour.01@…]

Thank you very much for the prompt reaction and fix.

[tobypeterson]

Hah... did you even read my comment?

Anyway, it looks like the latest unstable release (4.9.13) does not contain any QuickDraw code, so it might have a better chance of building.

[harbour.01@…]

Of course I read it, but this fix is a step towards having it working (confirmed by your latest comment), which for me is perfectly good. I don't promptly need allegro, it's just one of the dependencies of our FOSS project, having it is a plus.

Thanks again.
