emerge/distcc issues
Hello,

After tweaking my distcc settings, all is fine and it compiles things very fast.
However, (2) packages are giving me trouble: ethereal and mozilla. KDE 3.3,
mplayer and host of other packages are working great and they compiled very
nicely under distcc.

I disabled distcc on both the xp and p4 systems and mozilla(1.7.3) now compiled
fine. When it is done I'm going to see if ethereal(0.10.5) compiles without
distcc. If that is the case, do I need to file a bug report? My distcc settings
are a tad aggressive, so I guess my question is it possile that distcc can be
working fine but will not work on certain packages, (gives error messages) but
when distcc is disabled the packages install just fine?

Well mozilla compiled just fine, with distcc disabled, on the p4 portable.
Ethereal compiled just fine, with distcc disabled, on the athlon xp.

Here's the make.conf file, with distcc disabled, on the P4 that worked fine.
Both systems have very similar make.conf files:

CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe"
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
USE="-gtk -gnome java qt kde dvd cdr sse mmx 3dnow alsa apache2 calendar cups
divx4linux encode ethereal gstreamer jack perl php postgres spell ssl tiff xv
java mozilla mpeg scanner xvid"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
MAKEOPTS="-j6"

Should I report this as a bug? If so how, distcc, ethereal w/distcc, or mozilla
using distcc?
