Nope! By wild guess did I point to 'ccache' and anyway the problem was
solved, though. I also use the phenomenal 'ccache' all the time except
this one. It's probably the 'ccache' isn't the scapegoat, maybe
there's some other unsuitable setup in my system. I don't know whether
or not I'm able to get it located.

Thank you, Eric.
