I do not have svgalib installed anywhere on my computer, so I had to
manually edit the makefile prevent it from making svgalib.c under lib.
Otherwise, the makefile would go berserk on me, saying that vga.h, vgahl.h
and a whole bunch of other include files were missing.

I also have libggi installed on my computer for the X windows target.
Despite this, here is the output of the makefile:

You'll notice an extra -I/usr/local/include/ in there.  At first, I
thought it couldn't find the ggi_visual_t type, so I hand-inserted the GGI
include directory manually.  However, as you can see, this doesn't work.
I have never encountered a GCC error like that before, so I haven't a clue
as to where to begin to try and debug it.  I'll keep trying, though.  In
the mean time, if you figure out what it is before I do, feel free to let
me know! :)
