Hello Monks, got a problem compiling/installing the DBD::mysql module on my Solaris 10 machine. I already installed Perl 5.10.1 (5.8.4 was installed, I just installed 5.10.1 too) as well as the DBI module, the Solaris Studio 12.x (for the C/C++ compiler) as well as gcc. If i try to "make" DBD::mysql I always get thousands of theses errors:

"/opt/csw/lib/perl/5.10.1/CORE/proto.h", line 2932: warning:  attribute "unused" is unknown, ignored

as well as

As I'm very new to solaris and perl, I don't quite understand what I should do to solve the problem, maybe someone can help me?
