Point noted.  I've made a second pass at it and posted the new diff here:
http://ports.haiku-files.org/browser/haikuports/trunk/media-libs/allegro/allegro-4.3.10-haiku-2.diff
This still fails make while trying to build usigalrm.c but I think
it's a cleaner patch than the first one.

@ All,
Anyone got any tips on things I should look for to fix the RETSIGTYPE
problem that's showing up on Haiku in usigalrm.c? (see
http://ports.haiku-files.org/wiki/media-libs/allegro/4.3.10/1)
I'll do some more investigating in the next few days to see what else
might need patching to get this going on Haiku.
