I'm assuming this is due to a stale cache or something, so calling it a Taskcluster bug.

STOP!  /home/worker/workspace/build/src/js/src/old-configure.in has changed, and your configure is out of date.
Please rerun autoconf and re-configure your build directory.
To ignore this message, touch "/home/worker/workspace/build/src/js/src/configure",
but your build might not succeed.
So, all of the spidermonkey builds share the same cache name, `level-{level}-{project}-build-spidermonkey-workspace`.  Would different spidermonkey builds confuse one another this way?  Should we use different workspace caches for them?

I don't understand how the cache is used. I sort of assumed it was where the ccache was stored. But if it's used to hold the actual objdir, then... well, I wouldn't *think* it should cause any problems, but it has been broken in the past (where rerunning configure with different arguments required a clobber.)

So if that's the case, then it would be safer to have the variant or the job name in the cache name.

Yes, it is for the objdir.  It sounds like separating those would be a good idea.
Issue has not happened in over a month, and the bug (1302429) referenced has been fixed.  I think we can call this resolved.  Please reopen if the issue occurs again.
