  CPAN.pm: Going to build S/SI/SISYPHUS/Inline-0.48.tar.gz

Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good

Inline::C is packaged with Inline.pm because it is the most commonly used
Inline Language Support Module (ILSM).

See also: Inline::ASM, ::Awk, ::BC, ::Basic, ::Befunge, ::CPP (C++), ::CPR,
          ::Foo, ::Guile, ::Java, ::Octave, ::PERL, ::Python, ::Ruby, ::TT,
          ::Tcl and ::WebChat.

Config.pm indicates that your version of Perl was built with this C compiler:

    gcc

I have located this compiler on your system.
