Easy to fix. The cc that some makefile is finding is probably /usr/ucb/cc in the Solaris install. That is a stub that does nothing. Rename it to cc.bsd. On a Solaris site, you have to set up PATH as a post-install operation. Most Solaris admins have a post-install script for doing this. Do a check, using the which command. which gcc should point to the path where the gcc you want to use is located, and do a version check. Then do a which cc. Unless you have Studio 11 installed, you should get a "not found" return. The Studio 11 compiler resources are in /opt/SUNWspro/bin if they are installed. You may have to locate the offending Makefile or rerun configure to recover, but try make install first, after assuring that nothing can find /usr/ucb/cc.
