Hi,

For those building on Win32, it might be interesting that I've extended the 
ccache [http://ccache.samba.org/] to deal with MSVC.  I've done it during our 
Novell HackWeek [http://idea.opensuse.org]; I hope you'll enjoy it as much as 
I enjoyed the hacking on that ;-)

It is easy to use, instead of 'guw.exe cl.exe', you'll use 'guw.exe ccache.exe 
cl.exe' in your CXX environment variable after having sourced the 
environment.  To see the ccache statistic, use ccache -s.  You can override 
the directory where is the cache stored by exporting CCACHE_DIR="c:
\where\you\want"  Should you find any bugs, please send me patches :-)

I've not measured the speedup too much yet, but it was >20% in vcl compared to 
non-ccache run, the penalty of the initial fill of the cache was like 17% 
[compared to non-ccache].  Would be great if someone did a measurement of the 
entire build.

The patch and the binary:
