Description
On a Solaris/x86 box, no "cc" installed, but gcc installed, using Blastwave to get most of the software, easy_install Genshi fails like so:

standard hack is to put a fake "cc" on the path, linking to "gcc", but that fails for lack of support for the relevant options.

I'm not enough of an easy_install hacker to know where to go to make it use gcc instead; I'm sure there is a workaround, but we are no longer in the land of "easy".

- Resolution set to fixed
- Status changed from new to closed
Solution: upgrade setuptools to latest version.

Success. Clues leading to success were found here: http://bugs.python.org/setuptools/issue9
Hopefully the next person to have this problem with Blastwave (which gave me a down-rev setuptools) will come across this in a search.
(Bugs need a "Someone Else's Problem" choice for resolution, since this is clearly Blastwave, not Genshi)
Tried workaround
that removed the specific compiler complaints, but something is still broken:
