I don't know, it sounds like you're misunderstanding the functions.
al_draw_filled_polygon_with_holes doesn't draw multiple polygons
really. It draws one with a bunch of holes cutout from inside of it.
I don't see how "replaced by an array of the number of vertices in each
respective polygon" fits with that.

NOTE: I just woke up.
