Question allegro alfont 2.0.6 fails to compile in Arch linux


Hello,

I downloaded alfont206.rar from http://chernsha.sitesled.com/

Having extracted it, did chmod -R a+rwx * in the extracted folder.
Then I ran the fixunix.sh script in order to convert files into unix format.

In the Makefile I selected TARGET=LINUX_STATIC
and in ./include/alfont.h I chose #define ALFONT_LINUX.

However, the compilation process provided me with an unpleasant surprise:

Code:
# make
gcc -c -Wall -O2 -march=pentium -fomit-frame-pointer -finline-functions -ffast-math -Ifreetype/include -Iinclude src/alfont.c -o obj/linux/static/alfont.o
src/alfont.c: In function 'alfont_load_font_from_mem':
src/alfont.c:500: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 2 of 'FT_New_Memory_Face' differ in signedness
src/alfont.c: In function 'alfont_textout_aa_ex':

src/alfont.c: In function 'alfont_ugetc':
src/alfont.c:3052: warning: unused variable 'lpszW_pointer'
make: *** [alfont.o] Error 1
I tried to compile it with gcc-3.3 and gcc-3.4 aswell but to no avail.
The same errors occur every time.

All suggestions are welcome,
Thank You
