OK, that's a good sign - we're really very close now. 

We just need to adjust the build environment a little - it's
currently expects 
to use gcc 3.x on Solaris 9. If you edit the
hints/solaris.pl file in the 
P4Perl distribution, and change line 42 from this:

    $self-> .= " -DOS_SOLARIS2$1
-Dconst_char='const char'";

to this:

    $self-> .= " -DOS_SOLARIS2$1
-Dconst_char='char'";

Then re-run the build process from the beginning:

	perl Makefile.PL
	make
	make test

and I think that should do the trick.

Thanks for your patience.
