You need to install the Application Development Toolkit in order to get the
cc command installed.

X-Windows does not require TCP/IP; however, for some reason X-Windows will
not start properly once TCP/IP has been installed UNLESS TCP/IP is configured
and functional.  There is probably some way to muck around with the rc files
(i.e. /etc/rc and/or rc.tcpip) that would fix this behavior but I haven't yet found it.
