Yes. This is what I get. The program looks like this:

----
int
main( int argc, char **argv )
{
   FirewireCamera cam;
   //FileLoader cam(FileLoader::YUV411, "sample.yuv", 640, 480);
   ImageDisplay display(640, 480);
   cam.open();
junk
   cam.start();
   cam.close();
}
----

Of course it should complain about the junk line.

So now even more "invisible" characters on the line. But is there a 
chance that this is related to the problem? The log states that all 
names are plain ASCII... Remember that this only happens when using the 
"distcc -> ccache combo". distcc and ccache alone work just fine.
