Make sure that your GCC C compiler is in your path before /usr/ucb.
(There is a script called /usr/ucb/cc that is not a C compiler).

e.g. If your C compiler is in /opt/sfw/bin, do (assuming you are using 
sh, ksh or bash)

	PATH=/opt/sfw/bin:$PATH
	export PATH

In /opt/sfw/bin, if there is not a file called cc, it can be useful to
make one. e.g. "cd /opt/sfw/bin && ln -s gcc cc"
