System: SunOS Generic_106541-14 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10
Architecture: sun4

>Description:
	When trying to configure kerberos, configure can't find a compiler
	if the compiler is stored in a non-default location.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Install gcc into a non-standard directory that is still in your path
	Try and compile kerberos
>Fix:
	setenv CC gcc

	./configure works like a charm... why it needs that extra hint I don't
	know, but it's pretty critical to get everything kicked off.  The thing
	that really bugs me, however, is I've compiled almost every piece of
	software under the sun on a Sun and haven't had a problem except with
	krb5.  gcc is in my path (/usr/SD/bin/gcc) and which reports it in the
	correct place.
