Ah, I see. Not a bad idea. The only thing is it should look to make
sure these aren't already set up with ccache - if they are it should
leave them alone. It's also possible to set up ccache in a transparent
mode, where you don't have to call ccache explicitly. Not sure what
the implications of that would be.
