Well folks, here it is:  the ceremonial and traditional bug fix.
Alg, as distributed, does not properly handle blank ada-style
comments.  To fix, replace the line in "alg.lex" that looks like this:

--[^+-].*$ {				/* ada-style comment */

with these two lines:

--$  |
--[^\n\+\-].*$ {			/* ada-style comment */

Sorry for the mistake.
