1. Move the OS X main.m file from the main library into an addon. The
proper way to link Allegro on OS X then becomes "link to liballegro

Perhaps with pkg-config it could be automatic?
Maybe, although you want to be able to not have Allegro steal main()
(in case you want to use it with something else that steals main()).
Having *either* allegro_main() or main() seems unnecessary,
but I will wait for the patch.
True, but it's a side effect of the way we steal main(): in A4 you
*could* also call your entry function "_mangled_main()" - at least on
platforms where a magic main is used.
