Hi, dear distcc experts:


How are you? dear all. Sorry to trouble you.  I have one question to report to you and pls give me some advice about this. I'm now using distcc to try to build my source codes in windriver platform.  My operating system is WINDOWS 2003 server. I use CYGWIN 1.7beta to make distcc source code.  Distcc version is 3.1(both client and server). Its downloading page is here:
http://code.google.com/p/distcc/downloads/list 
Name is distcc-3.1.tar.bz2

Following the distcc installation guide, firstly I use make.exe in cygwin to create distcc.exe, distccd.exe and distccmon-text.exe etc. executable files.  Now I am working in windriver vxworks-6.7 version environment. To set client environment in WINDOWS system.
DISTCC_HOSTS=127.0.0.1
DISTCC_DIR=c:\apps\distcc\distcc_dir
TMPDIR=c:\apps\distcc\distcc_tmp_dir

run distccd in the same machine
set DISTCC_BIN=C:\APPS\distcc
set DISTCC_DIR=C:\APPS\distcc\distcc_dir
set TMPDIR=%DISTCC_BIN%\distcc_tmp_dir
distccd --allow 10.0.0.1/8 --port 3699 --daemon --no-detach --log-file=%DISTCC_BIN%/distccd_vx67.log --nice 6 --verbose

Then in client I input this command:
make CPU=SIMNU TOOL=gnu CC="distcc cc$(TOOLENV)" -j2

note: CPU, TOOL and CC is MARCO of vxworks-6.7. It has the nearly same effect as 
make -j2 CC=distcc

So error information popups like this following, which tells me ccpentium.exe compiler(a transplanting compiler of gcc in windriver platform) no input file. The precompilation process failed to pass. Don't mention sending preprocess results to remote machine. I think it's possibly caused by these two lines
distcc ccpentium -mtune=i486 -march=i486 -ansi  -O2 -nostdlib -fno-builtin -fno-defer-pop -Wall  -IC:/APPS/WindRiver/vxworks-6.7/target/h -IC:/APPS/WindRiver/vxworks-6.7/target/h/wrn/coreip   -DCPU=SIMNT -DTOOL_FAMILY=gnu -DTOOL=gnu -D_WRS_KERNEL  -DINET  -D_WRS_LIB_BUILD  -I.   -D_VSB_CONFIG_FILE=\"D:/Workspace/kevin/vsb_test/h/config/vsbConfig.h\"   -fno-zero-initialized-in-bss   -MD  -c -o D:/Workspace/kevin/vsb_test/simpc/SIMNT/common/objaim/aimMmuShow.o aimMmuShow.c

I don't know what's the reason for? I have a look at FAQ of distcc. I notice -MD may not work rightly by compiler gcc 3.0 or later. Detailed information is as 
http://distcc.samba.org/faq.html 
Problems with gcc -MD
 So I don't know if it's the root cause. Because it's difficult to modify windriver makefile to replace -MD with -MF, I can't verify if my idear is right.  The gcc version of Windriver is using is 4.1.2. So it's later of 3.0.

Another reason I doubt the command line length is a little long. So distcc only intercept front part of options and .c file name at the end  is lost. So it tells me no input file. 

So what's the definite reason for this strange thing. I remove distcc prefix, then everything is OK. Compilation is no problem.
