Description Will Woods 2007-10-02 14:48:31 UTC 
with gcc-4.1.2-28 and ccache-2.4-10.fc8 installed, the following command
silently fails:
  env -i PATH=$PATH gcc -v
ltrace reveals the following:
  getenv("HOME") = NULL
  exit(1 <unfinished ...>
After removing ccache, everything works as expected.
Comment 1 Ville Skyttä 2007-10-02 16:59:53 UTC 
Thanks for the report, applied fix from upstream CVS in ccache-2.4-11 which also
makes ccache at least output an error message to stderr if it still fails to get
the home dir for some reason.
