Not at all so far, but I didn't expect this to be complicated.

Uh, I don't know about your setup, but on my Ubuntu box, I manually do:
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ccache /usr/local/bin/gcc
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ccache /usr/local/bin/g++
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ccache /usr/local/bin/cc

and never think about it again. :)
