Is cc a version of GCC, or is it Sun's WorkShop or Forte compiler, or something else? (For example, what do you get if you run 'cc -v'?) -KPIC is for WorkShop or Forte, so GCC won't recognize it. If Perl was not built with GCC, then a lot of the options that it provides for building your modules will be wrong if you're now using GCC. You should try to use the same compiler to build your module as was used to build Perl. Have you successfully built other Perl modules on this machine?
