Solaris 8/net-snmp-5.2.2 build problems

Hi there list,

I am having trouble building net-snmp-5.2.2 on Solaris 8.

1)  I have read the README.solaris and the INSTALL docs. 
2)  I have combed mailing list archives in search of a solution.
3)  My configure command:  
           ./configure --enable-shared --enable-embedded-perl
4)  Perl:  version 5.8.7 built per instructions in net-snmp README.solaris
docs
5)  Gcc: v 3.4.2 from sunfreeware
6)  My $PATH: /usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/bin

My first problem was this:

s00c120# make
making all in /home/865980/net-snmp-5.2.2.pre1/snmplib
/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=compile gcc -I../include -I.  -I../snmplib
-I/usr/local/ssl/include   -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include
-I/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.7/sun4-solaris-64int/CORE -g -O2 -Dsolaris2 -c -o
snmp_api.lo snmp_api.c
rm -f .libs/snmp_api.lo

snmp_api.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/snmp_api.lo
snmp_api.c: In function `_init_snmp':
snmp_api.c:666: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a

s00c120# 

I found something in an email that suggested defining HAVE_NETDB_H in
net-snmp-config.h.  I have done that and now it bombs here:

rm -f .libs/system.lo
gcc -I../include -I. -I../snmplib -I/usr/local/ssl/include
-fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include

s00c120# 

I feel I must be missing something.  Can someone help?

Thanks in advance.
