Sun Studio 11 on Linux: newbie needs help playing the Temple of the Sun

Question

Hi!
I've installed Sun Studio 11 on Mandriva 2007.1 Free edition. I would like to play the Temple of the Sun game but the building process fails consistently.
I tried to follow the instructions on the following page
http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/learning/temple_faq.html#
but still no joy.
The wizards throughout the building process request much more parameters than those indicated on the FAQ page.
This is the makefile
## -- Makefile --
## User: complex
## Time: May 18, 2007 12:00:44 PM
## Makefile created by Sun Studio.
## This file is generated automatically.
#### Compiler and tool definitions shared by all build targets #####
CC = gcc
BASICOPTS = -g
CFLAGS = $(BASICOPTS)
# Define the target directories.
TARGETDIR_String=GNU-i386-Linux
all: $(TARGETDIR_String)/String
## Target: String
OBJS_String = \
     $(TARGETDIR_String)/cEmptyFile.o
# Link or archive
$(TARGETDIR_String)/String: $(TARGETDIR_String) $(OBJS_String) $(DEPLIBS_String)
     $(LINK.c) $(CFLAGS_String) $(CPPFLAGS_String) -o $@ $(OBJS_String) $(LDLIBS_String)
# Compile source files into .o files
$(TARGETDIR_String)/cEmptyFile.o: $(TARGETDIR_String) cEmptyFile.c
     $(COMPILE.c) $(CFLAGS_String) $(CPPFLAGS_String) -o $@ cEmptyFile.c
#### Clean target deletes all generated files ####
clean:
     rm -f \
          $(TARGETDIR_String)/String \
          $(TARGETDIR_String)/cEmptyFile.o
     rm -f -r $(TARGETDIR_String)
# Create the target directory (if needed)
$(TARGETDIR_String):
     mkdir -p $(TARGETDIR_String)
# Enable dependency checking
.KEEP_STATE:
.KEEP_STATE_FILE:.make.state.GNU-i386-Linux
Below is the output of make
dmake -m serial -f "/home/complex/.sunstudio/11-Linux-Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.50GHz/sampledir/ts.c/Makefile" GNU-i386-Linux/String

ts.c/cEmptyFile.c [3] warning: �a� is narrower than values of its type
gcc -g -o GNU-i386-Linux/String GNU-i386-Linux/cEmptyFile.o
Build Successful
Total time: 0 seconds
When I execute, it says "unexpected exception has occurred".
Could someone more successful with this game please provide more detailed instructions on how to proceed?
I should get a string somehow which I should paste into the answer window on the game page.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi
CC = gccYou are using gcc. Switch to using the Sun Studio toolset, and all should be well.
