[distcc] MS Visual C++ support

Hi,

Has anyone looked into supporting MSVC with distcc?  Like gcc, it is 
able to produce pre-processed source (client) and is capable of 
compiling pre-processed source (server).  Really, these seem to be the 
major requirements in supporting a new compiler.

Because distcc is supposedly ported to Cygwin (I don't have a Windows 
machine handy right now), it shouldn't be too difficult to add MSVC 
support.  I'm willing to do the work, but don't quite know where to 
start, and don't want to start from scratch if somebody else has looked 
into it.

Thanks,
Mike Santy
