Problem building a PERL-Module

Hi folks,

got a little problem with a Perl-Module here:
I installed Solaris 9 "as usual", which also installed Perl 5.6.1. I
need to add some mods to Perl (DBI and DBD::Oracle), so I downloaded the
sources from CPAN, unpacked them, and ran perl makefile.PL.
Hm, so far so good, but now I've got a problem: The Makefile generator
takes a quick look into perl's config environment, and sees perl was
build using the SunForte Compiler cc. (Of course, since it's the
original SUN package). Unfortunately, I don't have SunForte since it's
expensive, we use gcc...
So, the build-script crashes, 'cause all compiler options are wrong for
gcc. What can I do to tell the generator to use gcc?? One option would
be to re-build entire Perl using gcc, but I think there must be a
shorter way to do the trick, :-))

Thanks for your help,

kind regards from Germany,

Harald
