[distcc] getting distcc to compile without localhost

[Chris Robison]

Gentoo currently installs and uses distcc 3.1.

Portage invokes distcc itself, when "distcc" is included in the 
"FEATURES" variable in /etc/make.conf (the file that configures the 
process of building packages).  Since I'm not calling distcc (or make or 
gcc) myself but rather it's being called by the framework, I'm curious 
as to whether I can follow this advice about pump mode with Gentoo.
