[distcc] distcc sends preprocessing tasks to remote hosts

[Bart Friederichs]

Hi all,

I just installed distcc to play around with it, and evaluate it for our
development department. I seem to get everything working ('test' is a
testserver):

export DISTCC_HOSTS='localhost test'
make -j8 CC=distcc CXX=distcc

this starts and runs, but doesn't compile correctly. When I look into my
distcc monitor, it shows that 'test' is also running preprocess jobs.
And it cannot process them correctly (I get compiler errors in .h
files). Isn't distcc supposed to do the preprocessing on localhost?

When I run the 'make' command without using distcc, the project builds fine.
