This is since the requirements for running configure has slightly changed.

As the error message says: Please use --enable-ccache instead of
providing a wrapped compiler.

You have a /usr/lib64/ccache on your PATH, ahead of where your real gcc
lies. This has never been a supported configuration. Prior to
JDK-8148351, we tried to be "clever" and just override this
configuration. Now we stop and alert the user, and asks them to handle
the situation themselves.

I recommend that you remove /usr/lib64/ccache from your PATH.

If this is not possible, then you can specify your compiler explicitely
using "configure CC=/usr/bin/gcc CXX=/usr/bin/g++" or whatever.
