Well, I have now discovered the first few bugs in rhide and allegro.

Allegro bug #1: Ctrl-Alt-End does not always work. It often does, but it
  occasionally doesn't.
Allegro bug #2: This doesn't work either, though it should:

if(key[KEY_CONTROL] && key[KEY_STOP]) abort_program();

(Yes I installed the keyboard handler :))


Rhide bug #1: I setup a DOS mouse driver on my system. Even still, no
mouse pointer appears in Rhide. But, if I move the mouse and click buttons
I can pull down menus, and even fairly well aim it. It's not that it's not
detecting the mouse, it's that the pointer is invisible!
Rhide bug #2: I selected the option to highlight matching things such as
braces and parentheses, and selected a color for this, but it doesn't work
(they show up white).
