99.9% chance is you want to build with X support. I'm not sure anything
else will even work on Linux. That may not be the case though. However,
This http://www.allegro.cc/forums/thread/603059 thread suggests that
you can fix the problem by installing xorg-dev (or whatever they're
called on your distro) packages.

The question of whether colconv.c should be included on UNIX and DOS
remains open, I'm not sure.
