It looks like you've done a good job.
4) Adding an option to configure.in to enable a (default=off) switch for
USE_XCACHE. I don't feel like learning autoconf for this one thing.
Such a feature would be a bad idea--useless complexity.
Using a configure option to control something is a last resort.
What would be both simpler and more useful is a feature at run time to
turn the cache use on and off. A Lisp variable forwarded with
DEFVAR_BOOL to a C int variable could control it. The entry points
could avoid checking the cache if the C variable is 0.
