I don't think so - it's the first task building with autoconf / in-tree. I
however shouldn't added ccache to CC, that was an accident.  I think I'll
convert it to a vpath build, seems cleaner.

Hm, when are logs important for CompilerWarnings? I don't think we even
collect any?  Using a different builddir for the "sibling" tests (i.e. the two
gcc and the two clang tests) would increase the times a bit because we'd
regenerate the bison files etc.

I guess it'll look a bit cleaner to use a build-gcc and a build-clang, just to
get rid of the irregularity of needing that rm -rf.

Oops, will fix.
