It is most likely that your CC environment variable points to a C compiler
which is not gcc (most likely Sun compiler - it will not compile MPlayer).
Do export CC=gcc, export CXX=gcc (for bash) and try again. When I installed
Mplayer I also set CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS to '-mcpu=ultrasparc
-mtune=ultrasparc -O3'. Be aware though that DivX as it is now will not
work for you since it tries to read and write 4-byte integers from
non-aligned memory addresses (see my previous message how to fix the
problem).

RT> Where did I make a mistake? Pls. be understanding ;-) Greetings
