You don't claim familiarity with "c" or "make", so may I suggest taking
a peek at "arc4.c" ?   A possibility is that this code was prepared on a
system that had "sysctl.h" in a less-common location.

On my system that needs to be  "*#include <sys/sysctl.h>*" but I
occasionally see a file that omits the "sys/" part.


I don't have anything on my system that includes an "arc4.c", but this
command shows a generic approach:

*find ~/ -iname '*.c'  -exec grep 'sysctl.h' {} \; -print  -exec echo ''
\;  | less -S*

The "find" part is just because I don't know where your system has your
"arc4'c" file, and the last parts just make my display easier to read.
The important part is the "*grep 'sysctl.h'
{path-to-source-file/arc4.c}*" that looks for the relevant "#include
..." line.
