[distcc] "make install" after "make -j8 CC=distcc" still compiles entire Linux kernel

[Junfeng Yang]

Hi,

I just installed distcc and run into a problem when compiling linux kernel
2.6.11.  I first did a make -j8 CC=distcc.  When it finished, I tried to
install the kernel using make install.  However, this make install didn't
work as I expected.  Instead, it triggered a recompilation of the entire
kernel once again.  Does linux kernel Make file check for which compiler
it uses to generate the obj files?

Thanks,
