Subject: CLX won't compile using akcl under akcl on i386
Message-ID: <1991Mar24.174450.3398@uicbert.eecs.uic.edu>

i am attempting to build the CLX system under system V unix on my 386.
i FINALLY got akcl to make on my system ( which required me to first 
port gcc/gas to the machine :  meaning i built akcl using gcc ), but
here's the rub ---> when you make akcl, it only includes FASLINK in
SI if the #define BSD is set, which ESIX System V unix ain't!  

when i attempt to load defsystem.l from the CLX package, akcl bombs
with the appropriate messages stating that FASLINK doesn't exist.

anyone ever successfully ported CLX to an akcl system on an i386 or
similar system V Release 3.2 system?  if so, how'd you get around 
this one?

thanks in advance for your help.
