With a stock out of the box OpenSolaris install I installed Studio 12 and ksh93

then I tried a perl 5.10.0 build :

Use which C compiler? [/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc]

Checking for GNU cc in disguise and/or its version number...
"try.c", line 1: cannot find include file: <stdio.h>
cc: acomp failed for try.c

*** WHOA THERE!!! ***
    Your C compiler "/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc" doesn't seem to be working!
    You'd better start hunting for one and let me know about it.

ick !

not even the most basic headers are around ?

The README file for perl says that the fowlloing packages are needed :

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/build/perl-5.10.0$ pkginfo SUNWbtool  SUNWsprot
SUNWtoo
system      SUNWbtool CCS tools bundled with SunOS
system      SUNWsprot Solaris Bundled tools
system      SUNWtoo   Programming Tools

that is fine .. however

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/build/perl-5.10.0$ pkginfo SUNWhea SUNWarc SUNWlibm
SUNWlibms SUNWdfbh SUNWcg6h SUNWxwinc SUNWolinc
system      SUNWlibm  Math & Microtasking Library Heade

and forget 64-bit stuff

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/build/perl-5.10.0$ pkginfo SUNWarcx SUNWbtoox
SUNWdplx SUNWscpux SUNWsprox SUNWtoox SUNWlmsx SUNWlmx SUNWlibCx
ERROR: information for "SUNWarcx" was not found
ERROR: information for "SUNWbtoox" was not found
ERROR: information for "SUNWdplx" was not found
ERROR: information for "SUNWscpux" was not found
ERROR: information for "SUNWsprox" was not found
ERROR: information for "SUNWtoox" was not found
ERROR: information for "SUNWlmsx" was not found
ERROR: information for "SUNWlmx" was not found
ERROR: information for "SUNWlibCx" was not found

as it stands right now, the current OpenSolaris 200805 binary comes
with no compiler and no headers.

Perhaps the installer can allow the user to tick off some of these
things and get them dragged down during install?
