Solaris 8 and Net_SSLeay perl module

[Shelby Steve-S. <Ste...@mo...>]

I'm trying to get SSLeay compiled for use in Webmin for a Solaris machine. 
OpenSSL compiles and installs just fine. 
The Net_SSLeay module gives me this: 
# ./Makefile.PL -t
Checking for OpenSSL-0.9.6a or newer...
You have OpenSSL-0.9.6b installed in /usr/local/ssl
Writing Makefile for Net::SSLeay
cc -c -I/usr/local/ssl/include -xO3 -xdepend -DVERSION=\"1.07\"
-DXS_VERSION=\"1.07\" -KPIC -I/usr/perl5/5.00503/sun4-so
laris/CORE SSLeay.c
/usr/ucb/cc: language optional software package not installed
make: *** [SSLeay.o] Error 1
# 
Language optional software?  o.O
I have gcc installed in /usr/local/bin/, but can't seem to get the makefile
to recognize it. 
Anyone have any ideas?
