Too many 5.6's here :-)

You're installing in a copy of Perl 5.6 on Solaris 2.6 (aka SunOS 5.6)

Since Net::LDAP doesn't need a C compiler, that information's not relevant.

I expect the problem is a combination of Solaris 2.6 and Perl 5.6 not 
playing together very well. Perl 5.6 has some known problems, and Net::LDAP 
tickles them unfortunately.

Upgrade (:-) to perl 5.005 and you should have more luck.

Cheers,
