Help with installing gcc on Solaris 10
I want to install gcc for Solaris 10 to an alternate location besides /usr/local/bin, so I can't use the pre-compiled package from sunfreeware.com.
So I assume I need to compile gcc for myself and specify --prefix.
How can I accomplish this? Am I pretty much out of luck trying to compile gcc-3.4.6 using any old existing compilers on my system?
It SOUNDS as if I need to install the gcc package to /usr/local/bin, THEN I should not have difficulty compiling gcc for myself and specifying an alternate install path.
Thank you for your thoughts and time.

sdl-config
sdl-config(1) General Commands Manual sdl-config(1)
NAME
sdl-config - script to get information about the installed version of SDL
SYNOPSIS
sdl-config [ --prefix= DIR] [ --exec-prefix= DIR] [ --version ] [ --libs | --library-libs | --plugin-libs ] [ --cflags ]
DESCRIPTION
sdl-config is a tool that is used to configure and determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link pro-
grams, libraries, and plugins that use SDL. It is also used internally by the m4 macros that are included with SDL.
OPTIONS
--cflags
Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program or library that uses SDL.
--exec-prefix=DIR
If specified, use DIR instead of the installation exec prefix that SDL was build with when computing the output for the --cflags,
--libs, --library-libs, and --plugin-libs options. This option must be specified before any of the --cflags, --libs, --library-
libs, and --plugin-libs options.
--libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a program that uses SDL.
--static-libs
Print the linker flags that are necessary to statically link a program that uses SDL.
--library-libs
Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a library that uses SDL. (This excludes any static objects required for linking,
since these must be linked only by executable programs.)
--plugin-libs
Print the linker flags that are necessary to link an SDL-using object that is to be accessed via dlopen(3). This may include static
objects with PIC symbol information. This option should not be used for ordinary shared libraries or standalone applications.
--prefix=DIR
If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that SDL was built with when computing the output for the --cflags,
--libs, --library-libs, and --plugin-libs options. This option is also used for the exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified.
This option must be specified before any of the --cflags, --libs, --library-libs, and --plugin-libs options.
--version
Prints the currently installed version of SDL on standard output.
EXAMPLES
gcc -o main.o $(sdl-config --cflags) main.c
is how you might use sdl-config to compile a C source file for an executable program.
gcc -o my_app $(sdl-config --libs) main.o util.o
is how you might use sdl-config to link compiled objects into an executable program.
gcc -o libSDL_nifty-1.2.so.0.0.1 $(sdl --library-libs) read.o write.o munge.o
is how you might use sdl-config to link compiled objects into a shared library.
gcc -o libnifty_xmms.so $(sdl --plugin-libs) stream.o blit.o deinterlace.o
is how you might use sdl-config to link compiled objects into a plugin for use by another program.
