Description

[Thaodan]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:63.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/63.0

Steps to reproduce:

Build Firefox with CC="ccache gcc"



Actual results:

AS = /usr/bin/ccache (in autoconf.mk)

compile error during running AS:
/usr/bin/ccache -o xptcinvoke_asm_x86_64_unix.i_o -DNDEBUG=1 -DTRIMMED=1 -DSTATIC_EXPORTABLE_JS_API -DMOZ_HAS_MOZGLUE -DMOZILLA_

 0:31.13 ccache: error: missing equal sign in "xptcinvoke_asm_x86_64_unix.i_o"



Expected results:

AS = $(CC) (worked in Firefox 63)

This is almost certainly a regression from bug 1397263.

I don't think we'd spin a 64 dot release for this (so: fix-optional) but of course a fix is welcome.

I'm not familiar with the mozilla build system.
However what about adding an exception for ccache or shouldn't it count as  provided_assembler.wrapper?

The bug has a release status flag that shows some version of Firefox is affected, thus it will be considered confirmed.
