Hi,

After discussion in [1], please review this revised JDK 8u backport of
JDK-8148351. When the compiler is a symlink to ccache it'll continue to
use it's work-around to keep the Oracle JDK 8 build working. If the
compiler isn't a symlink it'll print this as a configure message and
won't do the ccache work-around (which it did prior this patch). 

Example:

Before:

checking for gcc... /usr/bin/gcc
checking resolved symbolic links for CC... /usr/bin/gcc
checking if CC is disguised ccache... no, keeping CC
configure: Using gcc C compiler version 8.1.1 [gcc (GCC) 8.1.1 20180502 (Red Hat 8.1.1-1)]

After:

checking for gcc... /usr/bin/gcc
checking resolved symbolic links for CC... no symlink
configure: Using gcc C compiler version 8.1.1 [gcc (GCC) 8.1.1 20180502 (Red Hat 8.1.1-1)]

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Severin
