I assume you didn't really have a colon at the end?

That invocation looks fine to me.  You don't say what kernel you're
trying to build, but in general the kernel makefiles are OK for -j.

What shell do you use.  What is $SHELL set to? 

Does it still fail if you don't set CC=distcc?

I think you must have some environmental problem causing make to fail,
or possibly a make bug.  I think make needs to create a temporary
fifo, and maybe it doesn't have permission to do that.  strace may
help.
