That seems odd. Did you build this Perl? Do you have a Sun C compiler on the machine? Building shared objects with the C compiler is common practice many places and standard practice on Solaris. The most usual problems people have is that they do not have a Sun C compiler on the machine at all, or they only have /usr/ucb/cc (which is found but doesn't compile anything). The fix is to get the Sun C compiler -- or rebuild Perl with GCC (and have GCC on the machine), or obtain a Perl build with GCC. It shows up in OTHERLDFLAGS.
