The error messages are clearly coming from /usr/ccs/bin/as, which your
system administrator should understand as being the Sun native assembler
from the SUNWprot package, not the third-party GCC compiler.

You can either install the GNU binutils package, or rebuild GCC and
specify exactly which assembler you're using, or just read the installation
instructions which covers all this.
