Ok.
I think this is a very clear and clean separation: the framework for loading an image is core functionality, the code for specific image formats is addon material. The relation between sound files and allegro_audio is similar to the relation between image files and Allegro core (allegro_audio can actually do something with the loaded sound files, just as Allegro core can actually draw the bitmaps), so that also makes sense.
So, seems good to me.
