           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You don't have the C compiler installed.  How to install that will
vary depending on the distribution you're using.  For debian:

  apt-get install gcc

But since debian has the Net::SSLeay packaged, I'd do this instead:

  apt-get install libnet-ssleay-perl

You can probably use yum (in Fedora) or other things in other
distributions to do the same.
