Sigh.  Distcc is crotchety, and it has the nasty tendency to fail
_silently_, and I have no control over its' decisions when to distribute
and when not to.  (Sometimes it thinks it's "faster" to just compile it
locally, which is pretty much never the case in this setup...)

I really need to write a new one...

Oh.  Is it related to:

  http://landley.net/hg/aboriginal/rev/1041

I fixed host-tools but may need to similarly fix the distcc setup script...
