Background:
	Sun 4/280
	Sun OS 4.1.1
	GNU gcc compiler version 1.39

Problem:
Unfortunately, I don't read this news group as often as I probably should, but
I cannot get perl 4.0 to compile using gcc.  I run through the standard
Configure just changing the line cc to gcc when it asks.  Judging by what
occurs after, Larry obviously has made provisions for gcc in the Configure.

From the compilation:

gcc -c -fpcc-struct-return -I/usr/include/sun -O -g  perly.c
gcc -c -fpcc-struct-return -I/usr/include/sun -O -g  array.c
gcc -c -fpcc-struct-return -I/usr/include/sun -O -g  cmd.c
gcc -c -fpcc-struct-return -I/usr/include/sun -O -g  cons.c
gcc -c -fpcc-struct-return -I/usr/include/sun -O -g  consarg.c
gcc -c -fpcc-struct-return -I/usr/include/sun -O -g  doarg.c
doarg.c: In function do_assign:
doarg.c:1067: `environ' undeclared (first use this function)
doarg.c:1067: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
doarg.c:1067: for each function it appears in.)
doarg.c: In function do_undef:
doarg.c:1297: `environ' undeclared (first use this function)
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `doarg.o'

========================================================

It compiles fine using cc . . . anyone have a work around for this?

Thanks . . .
