Sun's perl was built with Sun's compiler, so I suspect that is your
problem.  See `perl -V` around 'Linker and Libraries:'.  Do you have
/usr/ucb in your path?  If so, removing it may just give a different
error.  Unless you have a specific reason, you should not have /usr/ucb
in your path.

I would try exporting `cc=gcc` and see what happens.

Some time ago, I built a cyrus-imap package and it built just fine.  But
I did not test and complete the project.  I was using Sun's compiler.
