Dave\,

  You seem to have overridden a few defaults for the worse. The simple remedy is​:

  # make distclean   # Configure -des -Dcc=gcc   # make

  If this doesn't work\, then I've underestimated your problem. ;^)

  Once you have this working\, then you may wish to run `Configure' interactively and tweak some of the options a bit more gingerly.

# make make​: Warning​: Both `makefile' and `Makefile' exist `sh cflags libperl.a miniperlmain.o` miniperlmain.c CCCMD = gcc -DPERL_CORE -c -I/usr/local/include -g

  A default CCCMD will look more like​:

  gcc -B/usr/ccs/bin/ -DPERL_CORE -c -I/usr/local/include -O

  Your version might work\, but it suggests shenanigans to me.

  There are some very important libraries missing from here. This should look more like​:

  gcc -B/usr/ccs/bin/ -L/usr/local/lib -o miniperl miniperlmain.o libperl.a   -lsocket -lnsl -lgdbm -ldb -ldl -lm -lc -lcrypt

connect libperl.a(pp_sys.o) ld​: fatal​: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to miniperl *** Error code 1

  . . . and these are all symbols from -lm\, -lsocket\, etc.

  I've compared this to a Solaris 2.6 installation\, but most of the information will be the same.

For some reason\, you've removed the '-lsocket -lnsl' libraries from the list of libraries used to link perl. Don't Do That.

Put simply\, on Solaris leave the Configure selected libraries alone.
