Here, i am: i.' ve installed gcc from www.sunfreeware.com , now it seem to
go on further but "configure stops with  this message: "configure: error:

The gcc should have installed cpp too.
It should be in the same directory as gcc.  Maybe your path
is not correct?  Does it exist?   /usr/local/bin/cpp --version
(or wherever sunfreeware installs gcc)

Or maybe first do "make distclean", and then a "configure" -- configure
could have cached some bogus results from the previous /usr/ucb/cc
runs...

Or maybe you need some more pkgs from sunfreeware?
(Never used sunfreeware -- I compiled my gcc on Solaris from source
a looong time ago, still on 2.95.3 on Solaris.)
