Libel. Once Upon a Time, Sun shipped something called /usr/ucb/cc which 
was an abomination, but wouldn't be in any sane user's PATH. Oracle 
ships gcc (which compiles a language called gcc, which only vaguely 
resembles C, because the authors don't believe in the C standards), and 
also has the Solaris Studio compiler suite, which is an excellent C 
compiler (but doesn't know all of the bizarre dialects of gcc, e.g. 'a 
?: b' *shudder*).

The real issue is usually inline assembly being in GNU format, which is 
incompatible with all others. Oracle's /usr/ccs/bin/as doesn't always 
understand all the GNUisms.

But none of this is relevant to the OP's issue.
