Try: "make uninstall-libs"

My suspection is, you have some 4.1.14 modules lying around, which
Allegro picks up (even when statically linked against the CVS version).
I already suggested once to change this behavior, and have a version
compiled with --disable-modules never use any modules at all, not just
not compiled them. Maybe we should reconsider this.
