[distcc] how to compile with distcc without localpreprocessing,

[Fergus Henderson]

Some uses of the compiler, e.g. for linking, will always result in a local
invocation of the compiler, even when using pump mode.
Distcc only distributes compilation, not linking.

If you want to use NFS on the compilation server, then maybe ssh is nearly
all you need.
