Because, although the compiler advertises itself as gcc, it doesn't
work like gcc in all respects. In particular, "gcc -dM -E" does not
work right. You need to add a "-traditional-cpp" to get the compiler
to spit out what Perl expects.
If you look in Errno_pm.PL, you'll find a "if ($^O eq "darwin")",
which fixes this for Mac OS X. Find out how the perl on Server
defines $^O (I assume "rhapsody"?) and get the same fix to work for
you.
