You have to set that ALLEGRO_NOISY variable to true (in my run script). That will cause allegro to show its console, which is where you will see most of the output on Windows. 

It is controlled by the +c argument.

I'm having some real oddities testing on Windows.  Attached is a roster
of the implementations for which I see test failures -- the Allegro
variants and clisp.

Two oddities:

1. I do not get verbose output showing what happens when the tests fail.
 Critical information is missing from the logfiles.  I suspect that the
test script assumes that standard output is redirectable in some way
that it is not on Windows.  See allegro-test.txt which is attached.  Any
idea how to get the lisp output?  Any chance that REDIRECT-OUTPUTS
function from script-support.lisp does not work on Allegro + Windows?

2. I get fewer failures running one test at a time than running them all
in make.

Allegro testing reported the following:

-#---------------------------------------
Using g:/windows/allegro/32/non-smp/alisp
Ran 56 tests:
  52 passing and 4 failing
failing test(s):  test-encodings.script test-program.script
test-try-refinding.script test-utilities.script
-#---------------------------------------

But when I run the tests individually, only test-program and
test-utilities failed.  The other two tests succeeded.

I have rarely seen something like this before in make on Unix variants
due to not cleaning up the filesystem, but never in such a wholesale way.
