-xarch=v9 is an option that is valid only for the Sun compiler. It tells the compiler to produce 64-bit SPARC code. I'm guessing that Perl on your system was built with the Sun compiler. You may be able to verify this by running "perl -V" to get the compiler information.

The Makefile for DBD::mysql probably picked up the flag from the Config module of Perl.

According to "http://search.cpan.org/~nwclark/perl-5.8.8/README.solaris#Building_an_LP64_perl";, GCC 3 produces 64-bit code on SPARC architecture with options "-mcpu=v9 -m64". I don't have a SPARC sun box, so I can't confirm this.

In order for DBD::mysql to work, you need to have compatible binaries for MySQL, Perl, and DBD::mysql. So you may have to build all three from source.
