Using RHIDE 1.1b, I have been working on a large project (~5000 lines of
source and growing). The project involves Allegro.

On one single occasion, I did a bit of editing/debugging and then hit
compile/make, and it began to compile...it said it was running gcc, then a
moment later my sound blaster started making all sorts of "braaap!" noises
at the top of its lungs!
I panicked a bit, and hit a dozen ^C, causing the compile to abort, and
then exited RHIDE; the noises continued. Then I ran the sound card's test
software, and that eliminated the noise but caused my computer to hang. I
gave it the three-finger salute, went back to RHIDE and my project, and
did the Make command again. It worked normally that time.
