Often used in golf. Here's an example from the paragliding context:
それを利用して、通常航空機はアゲンストにて離発着が行われる。

<upd_detl>My reading of the Kojien definition is that "「…に反対の」「…に逆らった」の意" is there by way of explaining how アゲンスト came to mean "head wind". 
.
I can find examples like
アゲンスト・ザ・デーモン・クイーン
ライズ アゲンスト(Rise Against)
ユース・アゲンスト・ファシズム
where アゲンスト is used in titles etc., but in these examples, it is really a transliterated English preposition, rather than a Japanese "adv" as proposed.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>I agree about the 広辞苑 comment; it was the 大辞林 sense that tipped me towards adding it as a gloss. I have an old edition of 大辞林 which lacks that sense, but it appears in the online 3rd edition. 大辞泉 is virtually identical to 広辞苑 on this.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>prepositions don't really exist in japanese, so that won't work.  but i don't really see it modifying any verbs or adjectives, so perhaps adj-f?</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>アゲンスト is used in transliterated English, as in my examples above, and in other phrases like レイス・アゲンスト・ザ・マシーン etc.
Consider ザ in that last title. It's used to transliterate the definite article "the".
ルミナス和英辞典 says 
ザ(英語の定冠詞から) the, za.
EDICT says 
ザ [1][n] the 
But it's *not* a noun, and I haven't seen examples of アゲンスト where it isn't either 
- a noun (head wind), or 
- the transliteration of the English preposition "against". 
.
If EDICT is to document words like ザ and アゲンスト (in its prepositional usage), I don't think they should be labelled with Japanese parts of speech. I mean, ザ simply isn't a noun, and I'm not sure that アゲンスト is an adj-f.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>If アゲンスト is to be labelled as an adj-f, meaning ~に反対の, wouldn't it make more sense for the gloss to be a word that can be used adjectivally (such as "opposing"), rather than a preposition like "against"? You could still have a note to say that アゲンスト is *derived* from "against". But it can't actually *mean* "against" if it's an adj-i, right?
.
But again, I'd like to see examples where アゲンスト has that meaning (~に反対の).</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>Once we get away from the cases where it's neither an opposing wind nor a simple transliteration, it appears to be a synonym for 反対.</upd_detl>

<upd_refs>Thanks for that, Jim. That's very interesting.
I looked for some more, and found some examples like
- 終電だったこともあるしね、たまたま使わない路線での出来事だったという貴方にとってはアゲンストな条件が揃ってしまったよね。
- ですので私は、特定秘密保護法案というものに対しては、現在の形のままなら、アゲンストな立場です。
So wouldn't some adjectival glosses be in order" Perhaps
adverse
unfavorable
opposed
