This won't work. You'll need the Sun C compiler to build with
--enable-embedded-perl against a Sun-cc-compiled Perl.

There's another problem: usual Perl packages for Solaris have largefiles
support enabled which breaks net-snmp.

5.4.rc2 has a much better detection of those problems than 5.3.x.

Bottom line: To use embeded perl on Solaris, you need your own Perl,
configured with "-Uuselargefiles" and built with the same compiler as
the one you'll build net-snmp with. Try with a 32-bit build before you
consider building 64-bit libraries and executables.
