thanks everyone.
-KPIC is the setting for Position Independent Code (PIC). Check the gcc man
page for its equivalent and adjust.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =
"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 "-KPIC" is for Sun cc. For gcc it's "-fPIC". You probably compiled perl
with Sun cc, which means that you should compile CPAN modules with the same
compiler to save you trouble. "perl Makefile.PL" should pick cc by itself.

which in fact is the case. hence, i installed perl v5.6.1 and compiled with
gcc v2.95.3 and everything is happy.

hi, 

on every perl module i try to compile with gcc v2.95.3 i get this: 

gcc: unrecognized option `-KPIC' 
gcc: language depend not recognized 

consequently, the linkage fails during the make. 

-KPIC in Makefile is valued to CCCLDFLAGS 

is this the correct value for sol8 or is something else?
