Comment (by jrf):

 @desrosj Been working on some related things. I have a feeling that
 @johnbillion used a directory for the cache file to allow Travis to cache
 the file as it seems that there is no option to cache individual files,
 just directories.

 With that in mind, using a `/[.]cache/` directory off the project root may
 not be a bad idea.

 This directory would need a `.gitkeep` file to ensure it exists and can be
 committed (as per John's earlier patch).
 The cache files then need to be added to both `.gitignore` as well as
 `.svnignore` to make sure that the cache files themselves do not get
 committed.

 Also: why is `/phpcompat.xml` added to `.gitignore` ? This is a user-
 specific override file, not a default file name, so should probably be in
 the user `.git/info/exclude/` rather than the project `.gitignore`.
 Or is there documentation/a make manual page which refers to using this as
 an overload file ?
