Try setting an environment variable to the desired gcc:

export CC='<path-to-gcc>'

And make sure LD_LIBRARY_PATH has the path to your locally-installed libs.

Then remake the module's Makefile.PL and retry the build.

P.S.  Are you locked into that old gcc version?

P.P.S.  As administrator, you sure have some ugly paths on that
host--that may be the source of some of the problems (later if not
now) if there are years of old cruft hangin around--especially the way
some Perl packages are cavalier about where modules are installed and
how Perl's @INC is configured.
