I tried to install Bundle::DBD::mysql with MCPAN. DBI installed (at least it didn't say it failed). When it started the DBD install, this is what I got (after some time). I"m running gnu gcc.

---------------------------

gcc -B/usr/ccs/bin/ -c  -I/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/sun4-so
+laris/auto/DBI 
    -I/usr/local/mysql/include -Xa -xstrconst -mt -D_FORTEC_ -xarch=v9
+ -fno-strict-aliasing 
    
<<<<<gcc: unrecognized option `-Xa'>>>>>>>


gcc: language arch=v9 not recognized
gcc: mysql.c: linker input file unused because linking not done
Running Mkbootstrap for DBD::mysql ()


LD_RUN_PATH="/usr/lib" /usr/bin/perl myld gcc -B/usr/ccs/bin/  
    -G -L/usr/local/lib dbdimp.o mysql.o  
    -o blib/arch/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so   
    -L/usr/local/mysql/lib -lmysqlclient 
    -lposix4 -lcrypt -lgen -lsocket -lnsl -lm   
gcc: dbdimp.o: No such file or directory
gcc: mysql.o: No such file or directory

<<<<make: *** [blib/arch/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so] Error 1
