[AD] Allegro 4.1.17 WIP RC

[Evert Glebbeek <eglebbk@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm uploading the packaged files now to http://www.eglebbk.dds.nl/
allegro-4.1.17/. I haven't checked it myself yet, but I'll do that in the 
course of the evening.
If I find no problems and no one else reports any either, I will upload the 
release to sourceforge and bump the version number on CVS tomorrow.
