In RC2.  BTW, is that really Allegro policy (that you can use Unicode
routines before allegro_init)?

Both committed and in RC2.

I settled on all400.zip in case we have 4.0.10+, which would overflow
the 8.3 limit (alleg4010.zip).  alleg40.zip is wrong now because the
versioning scheme has changed.

Committed/RC2.

I like alleg40.dll better, but I don't feel like mucking about with so
many makefiles. If someone sends a patch (completely tested) then okay.

I removed the line, and put makedoc.c back into the allegro-tools RPM.

I committed a different fix.

Fixed in RC2.


Thanks for testing.  Keep it up :-)
