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.

      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
