In my case, I first noticed this with rpm builds, which are unpacking a
tarball every time. I did have ccache installed, but have removed it, to
no avail. I still get this failure. Reverting these three patches...

...gets me a working build every time. So I'm not so sure these patches
are completely innocent. They may not be directly at fault, but
certainly seem to be involved in causing things to get tripped up.

Indeed. I'm mostly clueless here. Well, mostly clueless, period, but
even more so here. And with the CONFIG_MODVERSIONS part of my original
mail, which I guess I should also re-test with ccache uninstalled...
