I'm trying to give the crystalhd branch a swing with distcc as I have 2 machines in the network with enough cores to spare (trying to beat the 15min speed record Davilla spoke of earlier). I think I have to do some magic with the bootstrapping as the ./configure chokes on distcc --version
any pointers?
thanks!

configure does not know about distcc so configure like normal. then
mkdir -p /usr/lib/distcc/bin
cd /usr/lib/distcc/bin
ln -s ../../../bin/distcc cc
ln -s ../../../bin/distcc c++
ln -s ../../../bin/distcc gcc
ln -s ../../../bin/distcc g++
export PATH=/usr/lib/distcc/bin:"${PATH}"
only need to make the symlinks once. you can add the PATH to your login. I just paste and run it from a ssh session.
bootstrap and configure does not use distcc so they are poky, same with the link.
"make -j8" and away you go.
