 As the current maintainer of the Allegro ports, I can tell you a few things 
 here.  For one, the devel/allegro port will be updated to 4.4.1.1 as soon as I 
 can get some more time to finish patching it for FreeBSD and making sure those 
 patches work.  For two, devel/allegro-devel is meant to be Allegro's 
 developmental version and does not necessarily need to be compatible with 
 devel/allegro in any way, and as such, once I get devel/allegro updated, I will 
 be updating devel/allegro-devel to 4.9.19.  So basically, I would say is it up 
 to the maintainers of ports relying on any Allegro ports to side with one of the 
 ports and not rely on the other port.  I can't force them into doing so, however.
 
 Thanks,
