DJGPP and allegro's a cool scene. Dig it!

  I'm no expert, but it looks like there's a fault in the code, in
which a datum is loaded into a register of diferent size. In assembly,
all data stored in registers must match the size of the registers. So,
for example, to put a datum in AX, the datum must be 16 bits in size.

 DC> `_et4000_read_bank_end' liballeg.a(tseng.o)(.text+0x26e):tseng.c:
 DC> undefined reference to `_et4000_read_bank'
  The undefined references means you're not linking in bank.o. The
linker can't find the functions with those names, which happen to be
in bank.o, because it's not included in the make. Besides, the problem
seems to be in bank.S.
  Without seeing the source code, it's hard to say what's wrong. And
it's in assembly, anyhow, so may be off topic here.
