Yeah, they are vastly different:

configure:19674: gcc -o conftest -g3 -O2 -isystem 
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/libffi/3.4.2/include -isystem 
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/librsvg/2.54.4/include/librsvg-2.0 -isystem 
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/gdk-pixbuf/2.42.9/include/gdk-pixbuf-2.0 -isystem 
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/jpeg-turbo/2.1.4...

I'd bet a small mount that these come from configure.ac:4266 ff.

      if test -n "$MAC_CFLAGS" && test -n "$MAC_LIBS"; then
        CFLAGS="$CFLAGS ${MAC_CFLAGS}"
        LIBS="$LIBS ${MAC_LIBS}"
      fi
...
    AC_RUN_IFELSE([libgccjit_smoke_test], [], [libgccjit_broken])
...
    CFLAGS=$SAVE_CFLAGS
    LIBS=$SAVE_LIBS
fi

AC_RUN_IFELSE is apparently run differently when using the cache, or 
something like that.

Hm.
