   I ran across that too, with my Sun machine.  Most people I contacted
seemed to think that it's a bad idea to mix compilers like that (perl
compiled under one and modules under another).  If you can't get access
to Sun's cc compiler, then you probably ought to look in to building a
separate copy of perl with gcc and make sure that's the perl you call when
you do the "perl Makefile.PL" when building a module.
