You can savely ignore this message. It was originally meant to help us
which differences would occur between a shell script (cflags) in the
perl distribution and the translation of the script into perl.

I think it caused more confusion than interesting differences. On
linux cc is a symlink to gcc, so there isn't really a difference.

My current version won't bother you with this message anymore.

Thanks nonetheless for message,
