I've tried: $ perl Configure.pl --cc=gcc --link=gcc --ld=gcc --cxx=gcc --verbose-step=gcc and got: Determining if your C compiler is actually gcc...gcc -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -xarch=v8 -D_TS_ERRNO -I./include -c test.c gcc: language arch=v8 not recognized From perl -V: Compiler: cc='cc', ccflags ='-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -xarch=v8 -D_TS_ERRNO', optimize='-xO3 -xspace -xildoff', That is, our config system is still using perl5 config vars blindly w/o further inspection and ignores commandline option at least partially. $ uname -a SunOS z1.t2000.develooper.com 5.10 Generic_118833-03 sun4v sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-T200 $ perl -v This is perl, v5.8.4 built for sun4-solaris-64int $ cc -V cc: Sun C 5.8 2005/10/13 $ gcc --version gcc (GCC) 3.4.3 (csl-sol210-3_4-branch+sol_rpath) BTW compiling/testing Parrot w Sun cc 5.8 works fine (except some +-0 quirks in complex.t) leo
