Dear Anders,

Our reason for avoiding caching of the specific file is because it is generated 
from a series of calls to git for calculating the version number.

I was afraid that caching would give us an old version number.

BR,

/Mats

It would also be nice to know why it had to be disabled, if there is a
bug in ccache. Normally caching a compilation shouldn't hurt anything...

Now, certain compilations (e.g. timestamps) one might to avoid compiling
just to not fill the cache with junk. But normally that doesn't happen*.
