Note, that warning found plenty of bugs when modifications of the build
system was being done and broke recordmcount.c. I really don't want to
silent it.

But for some reason, your build is causing lots of warnings and not for
others. Perhaps we can add a "SILENT_RECORDMCOUNT" environment variable
and have it set when something like CCACHE_HARDLINK or whatever is
causing it to trigger when we don't care.
