Not without a lot of hassle. It's astounding how much is revealed about
the project just by looking at the logs, information possibly of use to
my client's competitors. I'll have to get permission. I'll see what I
can do.

In the mean time, building distcc with distcc exhibits the exact same
problem. Can we work it from that angle? Is that a known issue or is it
just me? That would suggest something in my environment. Below is make's
stderr from trying to build just clinet.o from distcc-0.11/src with
this command:

        make -j2 CC=distcc clinet.o

Also below is the log from the server side.
