While building perl5 for sparc-sun-sun4.1, gcc gets called with option
-fPIC. gcc then calls as with option -k, which the assembler does not
recognize.

I am using gcc version 2.6.0 and GNU assembler version 2.5.1. The
compiler spec file contains the lines:

*asm:
 %| %{!pg:%{!p:%{fpic:-k} %{fPIC:-k}}}

which might be part of the problem, but this spec file came straight
out of the build of gcc.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Isidro
