SI-6362 & SI-5924 removes caches in the macro API
As recent experience shows, it's hardly possible to provide a global cache that persists between compilation runs: http://groups.google.com/group/scala-ide-user/browse_thread/thread/b1cab5588ff21f7f. Therefore I think we need to remove Context.globalCache. Speaking of a per-run cache, it looks like Context.cache can be to a certain extent emulated with attachments. Otherwise, one could write a JVM-wide static cache weakly indexed by compilation run instances (that are available via c.currentRun). For now I think we need to remove both caches. If macro writers really need that functionality, we could come up with a well-thought API later.
