I've managed to compile and install successfully Perl DBI on OS 5.0.4 using
gcc 2.7.2.3 (old Skunkware). 

Are you sure you are compiling using gcc ? For me it seems you're using 
SCO native 'cc', which lacks such options as -w0 or -Kpic. Look into
your 'Makefile' and change 'CC' settings to CC=gcc. 
I don't remember exactly what I did (I compiled it about a year ago), but
all you have to do is to make sure you're using proper compiler (i.e. gcc)
and use proper options for it.

Let us know how it went.

Many of the products and books I review are things I purchased for my own use. Some were given to me specifically for the purpose of reviewing them. I resell or can earn commissions from the sale of some of these items. Links within these pages may be affiliate links that pay me for referring you to them. That's mostly insignificant amounts of money; whenever it is not I have made my relationship plain. I also may own stock in companies mentioned here. If you have any question, please do feel free to contact me.

Specific links that take you to pages that allow you to purchase the item I reviewed are very likely to pay me a commission. Many of the books I review were given to me by the publishers specifically for the purpose of writing a review. These gifts and referral fees do not affect my opinions; I often give bad reviews anyway.
