I tried to build Perl 5.005_03 on my Solaris machine (using gcc) and got
the following error​:

(config.sh is attached)

     CCCMD =  gcc \-DPERL\_CORE \-c \-I/usr/local/include \-O   

regcomp.c​:2688​: macro `va_start' used with too many (2) args

There is something wrong with your gcc install.
Two arguments is correct for an ANSI C like gcc. Somehow gcc has found
an old K&R style "varargs" style include file.

Usually this is caused by passing -I/usr/include to gcc. Perhaps some
misguided soul has copied or created links which have same effect.
