I was under strong impression that distcc cannot distribute linking.
For example, if you would check its source code and see what it does and how
it does distribution - you would see that's impossible.

distributed linking. ]

Linking fails with

Compilation doesn't have this problem - linking does.

Just do linking locally. It's not a big deal anyway.
