I've unzipped the archive above and I tryed to build it in my system. 
However, I couldn't sucessfuly build it at the first time. The problem 
was in the file midi.c. I could sucessfuly fix it (commenting line 
1537), and after looking at the latest CVS file midi.c I've found out 
that this error has already been fixed. Good news!
After fixing this I could sucessfuly build the Allegro library for DJGPP 
(with WARNMODE=1 flag). The demo.exe seems to be working fine (except 
for the bogus dos\wss.c sound driver that causes my sound speaker to 
produce some very ungly sounds (I hope this doesn't put my hardware at 
risk)), but I hadn't time to test it throughly.

However, I couldn't install the library. See attached file 
error01.txt.     In opposition to the previous bug (is this fine in 
English?), no one has posted a CVS update for mdhelper.bat, and I have 
no idea how to fix it. Conclusion: I could not install yet ALLEGRO 4.2 
beta 1 in my system.
There's also the possibility that my system is with some problem. But 
that's unlikely, since I could install sucessfuly the previous Allegro WIPs.

System configuration:
Windows 98 SE (Portuguese Brazilian)
 DJGPP 2.03
 GCC 3.3.4 (single Thread model)
 MAKE 3.79.1

I've downloaded ALLEGRO 4.2 beta 1 from
  http://www.eglebbk.dds.nl/allegro-4.2/

The zip archive is all420b.zip  and the most recent file in archive is 
dated 2005.04.01 10:17

Attached are the error messages.
