Not exactly. AFAIR it's a message mapped to EIO errno.
The scenario can be like that (hypothetically), make runs compiler,
but instead of compiler ccache is being called and, in case it's
somehow broken, it might try to access to wrong block on the block
device which returns EIO on some (read()?) system call.
