Icecream works pretty fine out of the box for me with scons. Ccache is more or 
less obsoleted as scons has internal build cache support. For 
srcdir!=builddir, there definitely is some support, however currently it 
seems limited to specifying build directory in the SConstruct/SConscript 
files (which is not what we want, right?).
