[AD] Conflict between Allegro and std string library

["Maestro" <FL-here@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

There is a conflict between Allegro (4.0) and "string" library.
I tried to compile the following code under Dev-C++ 4.9.8.9:

===========================================
#include <string>
#include <allegro.h>

int main() 
{ 
 allegro_init();      
 set_gfx_mode(GFX_AUTODETECT, 1024, 768, 0, 0);
 install_keyboard();

 std::string String = "Press ESC to exit.";
 
 textout(screen, font, String,
        (SCREEN_W - text_length(font, String)) >> 1,
         text_height(font) + 2, 14);

 while(! key[KEY_ESC])
   poll_keyboard();

 allegro_exit();
 return 0;     
}     
END_OF_MAIN();
=========================================

Many errors occured - some of them:

The end.
