That's just the point, gcc is installed, the script isn't checking to
find it. I had to make a link /usr/local/bin/cc -> /usr/local/bin/gcc
and change the order of my PATH to stick /usr/ucb after /u/l/bin...
If the configure script is updated to find gcc like maildrop finds it,
then Solaris users won't have to jump through hoops to first figure out
what's wrong and then try fixing it...
