I want my ccache directory to be shared across all users. However,
portage is not liking that idea. I've set up CCACHE_DIR so that it's

chown'd it (recursively) to root:root and chmod'd it (recursively) to
a=rwx. I've also set up CCACHE_UMASK appropriately. Each time I do a
merge though, the directory is reset to 2770 portage:portage making it
impossible for non-portage users to use the cache.
Regardless of why other people would need the cache ( why aren't
they using portage in the first place? :P )
Becuase they are developing their own C programs, ill-suited or unready for
public consumption.
I suppose I could make portage use it's own ccache by seting CCACHE_DIR in
make.conf.
That looks like the best solution, IMHO.
I believe portage is hard
coded to chmod that directory to itself. Then again, it was really late
when I was reading through the code, so I could be mistaken.
Blah, I suppose I'll just have to experiment with ccache masquerading.
