I'd personally try to avoid the word "misnomer". Negative language in the
manual and all that. I don't feel strongly about it though and have no
complaints about the rest.
We could #define ALLEGRO_LINUX_CONSOLE (or somesuch) and deprecate
ALLEGRO_LINUX. Neither are symbols that are guarenteedto be always
defined, afterall.
