Have you compiled anything on this machine before? Sun and HP and no doubt
others used to supply a default compiler that could only be used for
building kernels; if you wanted a proper compiler you had to pay extra.

If that is your case, you need to download a binary of gcc for your
machine, or pay for the proper Sun compiler.

"I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto
me, and heard my cry. He brought me up also out of an
horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet
upon a rock, and established my goings. And he hath
put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God.
Many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the
LORD." Psalms 40:1-3
