I don't dare to ask here, given that I'm not as an accomplished programmer as any one of you is. I hope you'll indulge me if I here introduce myself to you, although I surely wouldn't meet GSOC's application criteria. My name is Franck (Z is not my last name initial, I

I'm more relying on a hunch right now, than on a sound analysis. Maybe I'm wrong... I have to take a closer look at how ccache proceeds to speed up compilation and precisely at how gcc internally uses I/O functions, to be more articulate on the subject. Maybe I could slowly and publicly form

Thank you very much! ccache really looks like it will address my problem. I'm trying it. I'm also quite relieved not to have to dig into the source of "make". It looked scary! Thanks also for the information about gcc-in-cxx. It puzzled me not to understand why it didn't show "class" struct
