Ah, so.

I'd always thought it to be just that they had to provide it if the user 
asked, but on a rereading of the GPL they were supposed to have either 
provided an actual notice of availability of the source or put the 
source in with the dev tools installer.

I don't recall seeing anything in the installer about distcc's source, 
and a grep through /Developer and the installer receipts for the SDK 
don't have any mention of distcc except for general distcc 
troubleshooting stuff.  :P

On the subject of the technical issues, though, is anyone 
interested/willing/capable of forward-porting apple's changes to a 
modern distcc?  It would be definitely nice to have...
