(RADIATOR) radiator on solaris SPARC

[Richard Grantham]

You will need the Sun C compiler collection to install these modules
because the Perl shipped with Solaris is compiled with it.  I suggest
you do this instead:

Download perl, gcc and GNU make from www.sunfreeware.com.  Perl has been
compiled with gcc, therefore you will be able to compile the new modules
with gcc.  They all install in /usr/local/bin.  Use these tools to
install Radiator.

Make sure that when running 'perl Makefile.PL' you are running the perl
binary in /usr/local/bin
