hi all.
i would like to propose a global config.cache which should speed up
configure significantly.
it is possible to set cache_file in config.site
which would be obeyed if we
export CONFIG_SITE=/etc/config.site
or something like that.
the sandbox must allow writing to that file during src_compile.
then some extensive testing must be done if some ebuilds are broken:
like configure may detect library X (cached) but we uninstalled it.
this should never happen if all the dependencies were correct. but
i guess there are many ebuilds which are broken in that respect.
