Comment (by dwatteau):

 Hit this too when testing the game for the 2.6.0 release.

 As is, the current `toltecs-demo.zip` archive puts the `WESTERN` file in
 an `ENGLISH.PDI/` directory. The current detection code for TOLTECS
 doesn't look for this file in this particular directory.

 So:

 * if you point ScummVM to the main directory, it will say it can't find
 any game there.
 * if you point ScummVM to the `ENGLISH.PDI/` subdirectory, it will detect
 the game, but it will fail running with the Adlib error above.

 The quickest fix would be to repack the hosted demo so that
 `ENGLISH.PDI/WESTERN` is moved back to the main directory. That would also
 make it work out-of-the-box on older ScummVM releases.

 (If the TOLTECS detection code can also look for `ENGLISH.PDI/WESTERN` as
 a fallback, that could also be helpful in case the original demo was
 shipped this way.)
