I am compiling Parrot under Solaris 8 using gcc.

- I get lots of warnings about
  "padding struct to align 'whatever'"
  "padding struct size to alignment boundary" etc

- During the 'make', just after doing
  'gcc -o parrot...', it then does:
=================================================
cd docs && make && cd ..
perldoc -u ../packfile.c > packfile-c.pod
Unknown option: u
perlman [-h] PageName|ModuleName...
    -h   Display this help message.
PageName|ModuleName...
         is the name of a piece of documentation that you want to look at. You
         may either give a descriptive name of the page (as in the case of
         `perlfunc') or the name of a module, either like `Term::Info',
         `Term/Info'.

Any switches in the PERLDOC environment variable will be used before the
command line arguments.

*** Error code 2
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `packfile-c.pod'
Current working directory /opt/perl_src/parrot/docs
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `docs/.dummy'
========================================================

   I assume that this is something to do with documentation.
   If I do 'make test', all tests that are not skipped pass.

   I ran Configure.pl with Perl 5.8.0 and it is not in my
   path. The version of Perl that is in my path is 5.005_03.
   I don't know if this makes a difference.

   Information from the perl I used for Configure.pl follows:
