I installed ccache (on ubuntu) but did no symlinking -- instead I compiled eclib after (re)configuring using CXX='ccache gcc' ./configure. The result was a 320MB ~/.ccache, and a *very* quick recompile after "make clean; make".
I did not want to mess around with the system gcc as it's a shared machine, and it seems unnecessary.
