Ok, thanks for asking -- I now have a lead. Running a plain
`install.packages("arrow")` followed by a second one with the suggested
`ARROW_R_DEV=true` set revealed that the compilations bombed over (fairly
standard) use of `ccache` inside my `CC` and `CXX*` variables (in
`~/.R/Makevars`). Removing it lets the build succeed. So it looks like the
`cmake` setup it more fragile that we would like. That may be something worth
addressing. (I have seen it with maybe one other CRAN packages out of hundreds
so it is not unheard.
FWIW my setup is a faily benign
```
VER=
CCACHE=ccache
CC=$(CCACHE) gcc$(VER)
CXX=$(CCACHE) g++$(VER)
CXX11=$(CCACHE) g++$(VER) #-std=c++11
CXX14=$(CCACHE) g++$(VER) #-std=c++14
CXX17=$(CCACHE) g++$(VER) #-std=c++17
```
(which also needs two settings in `~/.ccache/ccache.conf` to work for R:
```
max_size = 10.0G
# important for R CMD INSTALL *.tar.gz as tarballs are expanded freshly ->
fresh ctime
sloppiness = include_file_ctime
# also important as the (temp.) directory name will differ
hash_dir = false
```
