I have been experiencing problems compiling the akcl (and kcl) sources
on an HP9000/425.  I obtained the sources from rascal.ics.utexas.edu .

I followed the directions carefully - many times.  I installed and used
the GNU C compiler which seems to be in favor when reading the documentation.
However, the make process cannot get past a problem with one of the 
source files - unixsave.c.  error message follows:

 gcc -msoft-float -DVOL=volatile -I/usr/local/akcl/o -c -O -I../h -O ../c
/unixsave.c
../c/unixsave.c: In function memory_save:
../c/unixsave.c:79: warning: type mismatch with previous external decl
/usr/include/sys/unistd.h:287: warning: previous external decl of `sbrk'
../c/unixsave.c:79: warning: local declaration of `sbrk' doesn't match global on
e
../c/unixsave.c:98: warning: assignment of pointer from integer lacks a cast
../c/unixsave.c:112: structure has no member named `a_dnttsize'
../c/unixsave.c:112: structure has no member named `a_sltsize'
../c/unixsave.c:112: structure has no member named `a_vtsize'

The 'structure has no member named xxxx' errors refer to a line that
references an external routine 'COPY_TO_SAVE'.

There is a header file 'hp300.h' which uses defines COPY_TO_SAVE, but
again I am on a wild goose chase to find out why the error messages.

Has anyone else that reads this notes string experienced this or similar
problems?  I'm stumped.

I did find the solution:  I was running HP-UX 8.0.  When I compiled the 
source on a system with 7.05 HP-UX, I had no problems.  The binaries run 
fine on an 8.0 HP-UX version.
