I would use the SunStudio c/c++ compiler for Sun Sparc, especially 64bit
sparc.  All the sun stuff is built with Sun Studio (/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc
etc).

the perl thats built into solaris 9 is likely a little old, and may not
be 64bit, I'm not sure.  k, on my sol9 sparc legacy test system(a V240),
/usr/bin/perl is 32bit.   There is no /usr/bin/sparcv9/perl

so, you'll need to build your own 64bit perl if you want to link it to a
64bit postgres.
