Description

I have a python compiled by pyenv with ccache, and since 72.2.0, setuptools can't link so as expected.

Expected behavior

it should build so as expected

How to Reproduce

you will need to install pyenv, compile python with https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv-ccache

then use this python to build binary module,

for example

git clone https://github.com/trim21/bencode-py
cd bencode-py
pyenv local 3.10
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
python setup.py build_ext -i --force

Output

some testing:

54936c7 is good

64f10c5 is bad

this is caused by #4539
