Receiving requests for the patch to AKCL 615 to run under NeXTstep 3.0,
prompted me to cross post it here.

I have recompiled AKCL (version 615 or so) under NeXT 3.0 and
it works fine. I had to make two changes:
In akcl/c/NeXTUnixsave.c, the declaration:
extern struct section *getsectbyname(char *, char *);
causes a fatal compiler error. The new declaration
(in /NextDeveloper/Headers/bsd/lib.h) is:
/* getsecbyname(3) */
extern const struct section *getsectbyname(
const char *segname,
const char *sectname);
Also, the library /usr/lib/libg.a is not included
in the 3.0 release, so I removed the -lg switch
from the LIBS statement in akcl/unixport/makefile.
