Don't worry. Allegro is not written at a very low level nowadays.

We are mainly in need of Windows and Mac OS X coders to work on those
ports of the 4.3 branch. The first thing you could do is get a copy of
the 4.3 sources, build it for your platform and try it out. If it's
fine you might consider working on the new graphics API or mouse APIs.
The 4.2 branch does not require so much work, but there are some bugs in
the todo.txt list which would be nice to eliminate (mainly
Windows-specific). I would ignore everything other than the "4.2.1
todos" section, but even some that is out of date :-)
