pass required. Additionally, if you do specify a --cache parameter but only one pass ends up being required, no cache will be generated anyway since it would only slow things down.

I don't think this is a good idea. I often split the Europe excerpt, and only after running mkgmap I find out that one of the tiles is too big so I have to split again with a modified areas.list. Creating a cache during the first pass helps a lot there.
