After some time, the use of distcc with SunWS seems an unresolved issue. Of 
course, I exclude any attempt to modify the STL headers (which in fact are 
Sun's version of STL headers).
The correct statement is that _Sun's CC does not behave correctly when the 
preprocessor is involved as a separate process_.

This compiler should still be marked as 'unsupported'. The only way (I know 
of) to make some use of a compile farm is to exclusively mark the few files 
that *do* compile, and send those through distcc.
Hint: it seems that templates and CORBA implementation source do generally 
break the precompiler.
