Well, okay, 500 MB for a core component is really scary.
For now, let's stick with the prepackaged dx80_mgw.zip of
the Allegro project.

I designed this new "directx" package to be always installed
over MinGW's "w32api" package. I also treat it as a core
package, so its part of the "gcc" depedency and thus doesn't
need to be specified explicitly.

Please check whether SDL builds with DirectX support. Do we
need any changes to src/sdl.mk?
