[ future talk to gnu.misc.discuss or some such, since this isn't germane to
  gcc bugs ]

   You people may already know all about this. Forgive me if so. A friend
   was talking to a Sun rep about solaris. I'm sure you know they are no
   longer bundling the C compiler with it. The rep claimed, however, that
   Sun's cheap ($700) C compiler won't successfully compile gcc. They must
   be trying to make things difficult for you.

Well, the last time I tried, Sun's C compiler built GCC just fine.  But
this doesn't matter, since gcc compiles gcc just fine.  There is no need
for another C compiler on Solaris 2.  Prebuilt binaries of gcc are
available in ftp.uu.net:/vendor/cygnus, as well as a few other places.  The
next Sun Catalyst CD-ROM will also have binaries available.
