The problem is definitely that you are missing the compiler, cc_r, that was used to build Perl.
It is not so clear that it is GCC that's missing. You're on AIX, and the IBM-provided compilers tend to have names with extensions like _r. And often names such as xlc_r. These might conceivably be in /usr/vac/bin if you have the software installed at all. If you can't find cc_r and can't afford to get it, you may be able to get away with faking it. However, options such as -qnoansialias are going to cause problems with most compilers other than the IBM ones. AFAIK, GCC won't support those options even on AIX. Frankly, you may be best off rebuilding Perl yourself with a compiler of your choosing, and then adding DBI and so on.
