Exactly. So even if you say "this program isn't safe under DOS" you can 
still have problems if someone runs it under Unix with signal callbacks.

I'm somewhat curious though. Would it be a good idea to add a define: 
ALLEGRO_TIMERS_ARE_THREADED
under platforms where the timers are using threads? Though I'd think.. 
if someone /needs/ threads, they should learn to use them directly 
instead of relying on behavior that's not gauranteed.
