I'm trying to test SA 3.3.0 alpha2 on a (virtual) OpenSolaris box,
which does not have a C compiler installed, so the 'make' fails.

Since I only want to see if the perl-side works (spamassassin, spamd,
sa-update, sa-learn), I thought I could use the option mentioned
in Makefile.PL:

  'BUILD_SPAMC'  ,    # Set to 'no' to skip build of spamc.

but somehow I have no success.

Giving it as an environment variable (sh/bash syntax)
it has no effect:
  $ BUILD_SPAMC=no perl Makefile.PL

and giving it as a parameter to Makefile.PL is rejected by MakeMaker:
  $ perl Makefile.PL BUILD_SPAMC=no
  [...]
  'BUILD_SPAMC' is not a known MakeMaker parameter name.

So, is it possible to build SA without spamc / without a C compiler?

  Mark
