Summary: 4.2.1 isnt binary compatible with 4.2.0

Initial Comment:
built allegro-4.2.1 today and i got that with, for example, atanks game:
thresh@xxxxxxxxxx ~ $ /usr/games/atanks
/usr/games/atanks: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/liballeg.so.4.2: undefined symbol: _blender_trans24

http://pastebin.ca/307011 -- thats the symbols changed from 4.2.0 to 4.2.1.
looks like they all moved to _unsharable.a library
but the programs already compiled with 4.2.0 do not include that new archive library and the shared library doesn't provide them now.

Just tested this on my own system with one of my own programs: installed
4.2.0, compiled, then upgraded to current SVN. Works fine.
I agree with Peter; it's probably a problem with the atanks binary. It's
possible the package maintainers for the distribution somehow broke
something with a custom patch; what Linux distribution is showing this
problem?

I can't reproduce it with atanks-2.0-beta.  The included binary didn't
work on my system (Slackware 11.0) with a message "floating point
exception" so I built the source on my system using Allegro 4.2.0, then
upgraded to Allegro 4.2.1.  The binary worked fine.  I believe the original
binary must have been built with a somehow "incorrect" 4.2.0.

Not good.
Thanks for reporting; we'll try fixing it as soon as possible.
