I had literally *tons* of problems compiling Allegro under BeOS after that
modification... The Be API already uses "clear" as a macro, so to avoid
problems I changed alinline.h to declare clear as an inline function calling
clear_bitmap if under BeOS, instead of declaring it as a macro; it works now,
but I wanted to inform you about this.
