[distcc] Corrupted object files when using ccache + distcc

[David Baird]

In short, I don't think this problem is exclusively with Redhat systems.

I am having the same problem:

Using gentoo, on kernel 2.4.22 with aa patches, nfs root (meaning my
ccache is also on nfs), distcc and ccache are in my FEATURES variable.

I get corrupted .o and .la (if I remember right) and some other corrupt
files with the a message like:

synthdata.o: file not recognized: File format not recognized

Putting the file through hexdump shows all zeros:

0000000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
