When the ccache is enabled, the HOSTCC variable refers to the ccache binary.

But the host-ccache is not a dependency of the kconfig's .config. Some targets
such as `busybox-menuconfig` may calls Kconfig before the host-ccache is ready.
If the host-ccache is not ready yet, the Kconfig will fail. Because it can not
use $HOSTCC to build its utilities without ccache.

This issue can be reproduce with the following commands:
 1. make clean defconfig
 2. echo "BR2_CCACHE=y" >> .config
 3. make olddefconfig busybox-menuconfig

This patch fixes this issue by add host-ccache to the dependencies of .config.
So that the Kconfig can use $HOSTCC.

Thanks for this contribution! However, I have not been able to
reproduce the problem with the steps you describe. Here is what happens
here:

thomas at windsurf:~/projets/buildroot (master)$ make clean defconfig

#
# configuration written to /home/thomas/projets/buildroot/.config
#
make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'busybox-menuconfig'.  Stop.
make: *** [Makefile:79: _all] Error 2

I also tried manually a configuration with BR2_CCACHE enabled and
busybox enabled, and "make busybox-menuconfig" worked just fine,
without host-ccache being built.

I *think* what we will want instead is to use HOSTCC_NOCCACHE to build
the kconfig utilities.

Best regards,

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

 ??? I am so sorry that I sent the incorrect commands.

 ??? After checking this issue again, I found this issue only appears on 
the uclibc and the linux package.
 ??? I mistakenly thought this was a problem with pkg-kconfig.mk and 
modified it. And after that, it works.

 ??? You can try to reproduce this issue by replacing 
"busybox-menuconfig" to "uclibc-menuconfig".

 ??? Please forgive my mistakes. I will send another patch to fix this 
issue by using HOSTCC_NOCCACHE instead.
