With my last few commits I've converted the final few pieces of allegro to use
fshooks. icodec, acodec, and config.c all use it now.
If someone were to write an addon for PhysicsFS right now, allegro 4.9 apps

(that PhysicsFS also supports, like zip).
A few more days, and I might have my entire todo list completed \o/
