Well, it all worked fine until:

obj/watcom/runner.exe wlink \\ @ "option quiet" "option stack=128k" "system
dos4g" "name docs/makedoc.exe" "file obj/watcom/alleg/makedoc.obj
obj/watcom/alleg/makehtml.obj obj/watcom/alleg/makemisc.obj
obj/watcom/alleg/maketxt.obj obj/watcom/alleg/makertf.obj
obj/watcom/alleg/maketexi.obj obj/watcom/alleg/makeman.obj
obj/watcom/alleg/makechm.obj obj/watcom/alleg/makedevh.obj"
Error(3033): file _tmpfile.arg: line(5): directive error near
'obj\watcom\alleg\makehtml.obj'
make.exe: *** [docs/makedoc.exe] Error 1

Running:

wlink option quiet option stack=128k system dos4g name docs\makedoc.exe file
obj\watcom\alleg\makedoc.obj file obj\watcom\alleg\makehtml.obj file
obj\watcom\alleg\makemisc.obj file obj\watcom\alleg\maketxt.obj file
obj\watcom\alleg\makertf.obj file obj\watcom\alleg\maketexi.obj file
obj\watcom\alleg\makeman.obj file obj\watcom\alleg\makechm.obj file
obj\watcom\alleg\makedevh.obj

from a batch file manually worked fine. I'm guessing that Watcom wants "file
objectname" before each object file name, or a comma between each file,
looking at the help file here.

Other than that, Allegro 4.1.7 WIP builds fine with Watcom C/C++ 10.6.
