perl compile problems on solaris

I am trying to install perl 5.6.1 (to keep compatibility with the
production environment) on a Solaris 2.8 box and ran into the following
error. Google searches do not reveal anything to resolve this.

Any help is appreciated.

Checking compatibility between /usr/bin/echo and builtin echo (if
any)...
They are compatible. In fact, they may be identical.

Symbolic links are supported.

Checking how to test for symbolic links...
You can test for symbolic links with 'test -h'.

Good, your tr supports [:lower:] and [:upper:] to convert case.

gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1': No such file or directory
Uh-oh, the C compiler 'gcc -B/usr/ccs/bin/' doesn't seem to be working.
You need to find a working C compiler.
Either (purchase and) install the C compiler supplied by your OS
vendor,
or for a free C compiler try http://gcc.gnu.org/
I cannot continue any further, aborting.
