make install does that for you

I haven't done a "make install" in quite a while as it managed to trash me
to the extent I had to boot in rescue mode from a cd and fix it.

The usual way people screw this up is by not doing the 'make modules_install'
*before* the 'make install'. That's the fast path to a busted initrd.

timestamps and checksums of the source files (to find out if they
changed since the last build) and a cache of compiled objects in
~/.ccache/

That dir doesn't exist here except in /root, and that listing doesn't
indicate its useful to me.

it'll get auto-created when you start using it.

Is this some utility I need to install to
enable it?

yum install ccache should dtrt.
