Version 4.1.2

This WIP brings significant new features/fixes for BeOS users. You are encouraged to use this instead of the latest Allegro stable release (4.0.2)!

New BeOS features include a safe BWindow based windowed driver (so Allegro apps will finally be able to run also with the VESA system gfx driver, which doesn't support BDirectWindow), as well as a fullscreen overlay driver (for the cards that support RGB overlays)
