I'm looking at tickets #23204, #23206, and #23208 -- all dealing with the fact 
that ccache or distcc does not play nice with qt4-mac's configure routine.  The 
attached patches are simple to implement, and I have a version that will play 
nice with ccache or distcc during configure.  BUT: They are only used when 
doing direct compiling, not when using QMake to generate the Makefile(s).  Now, 
I can change that in the spec file so that (for example) CC gets mapped to 
"${CCACHE} ${configure.cc}", but I really don't know how well that will work if 
CCACHE is not being used; and, do -all- programs using QMake want to be using 
CCACHE?  I assume some will not work with it, and hence these values would need 
to be changed.  Building QMake (during configure) is only a few minutes on even 
old systems, and in the current state of being all of the build stage will not 
use ccache or distcc -- so this change will not have a significant impact on 
the compile time of qt4-mac.  I'm happy to includ
 e compatibility for the sake of it with ccache or distcc, but I don't know 
that I have the time / effort available to do that work.  Anyone have thoughts 
/ opinions? - MLD
