The legacy struct acct has been renamed to acctv1 and a new one is named 
acctv2.
If you add:
typedef struct acctv1 acct_t;
After the #include <sys/acct.h>

then change the type of acdata to 'acct_t', you'll probably have solved it. 
But depends a bit on the rest of the library.

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
    and never get to the software part.
