You need to have the same compiler available that was used to build
perl itself. Where did you get this perl?

You might also consider installing ActivePerl for Solaris. It comes
with HTML-Parser out-of-the-box and you can install additional stuff
with ppm without having the compiler available.

You don't have the Solaris C compiler installed. You need to go to
sun.com and download and install Sun Studio.
