samba - Sep 1998 - Binary distribution needing 'cc'

Hi all, can you help me with a small problem.  I've downloaded a binary
archive for AIX on an RS6000 because we don't have cc (can you believe it,
the bloody c compiler is a chargeable extra!).

however, when I try to run a 'make install' all it did was complain that
it couldn't find 'cc' and then stopped.

What am I doing wrong (apart from using aix instead of Linux)?

If you have downloaded the correct file, it's already compiled, so you can
modify the Makefile and delete the word "all" in the entry install.
Then
you can do a make install, and follow the installation instructions.

I hope this helps.
