I think if someone can;'t work out that bit for themselves, they really
shouldn't be building their own perls.

to use make add /usr/ccs/bin/ - sure (you write about it)

Yes, we say "Include /usr/ccs/bin/ in your PATH".

to use gcc add
/usr/sfw/bin/ so befor

It's a while now since I've used Solaris, but I'm not aware of that being
a standard location for installing gcc. Perhaps we should hadd a sentence
in the "GCC" section thats suggests checking that gcc is in your path?

add to readme pleasealso if it virtualbox then mount win7 directory to unix
directory​: mount -F vboxfs -o uid=100,gid=10 solaris /mnt/vbox_share

I know nothing about virtualbox, but these instructions look exceedingly
non-generic.

I've taken this ticket and will take a look. (I have no idea about the
virtualbox comment either. I can't imagine how a win7 directory might
be relevant to perl on Solaris.)
