What do you get from perl -V ? Is this /bin/perl, as shipped with Solaris? My guess is that the perl you are using was not compiled with gcc. If this is the case, you need to either buy the Solaris C compiler, or (recommended) build a new perl with gcc, put it in your path before / bin/perl, and compile DBI/DBD with that perl.
