I use svnlite because it's in base, and in your type of situation I'd
want to use base tools. When did you run the checkout? Did it complete
without error?

that's the way it *should* work. But by doing this, we eliminate the
possibility of ccache being in the equation at all.

*should* exist. What I'm suggesting makes *certain*. What we know is
make is encountering a problem. What I'm suggesting removes things make
might be picking up, for certain. It's how I've overcome similar issues
