i am trying to get GNU C installed on my IPC
running Solaris 2.3. the trick is that i have
no existing "cc" or "make" commands in my environment.
to install GNU C you need a "make" command.
to install GNU make, you seem to need an existing C
compiler. in the "configure" script for GNU make,
it checks for what C compiler i have. but i have none!

the make "configure" scripts ultimately bales-out cause
it thinks i am trying to do "cross compiling".

am i trying the impossible? i have wasted days on this.
all i want is a C compiler...
