ipating in the build.

<p>The main feature required by distcc is that the compiler must be able
to run the preprocessor separately, and then compile the preprocessor
output from a file.  This was a basic part of the original design of
C, but some compilers seem to have lost the ability to do this.
However, this feature is not required if you use distcc's "pump" mode.

<p>Secondarily, distcc is currently hardcoded to suit gcc's behaviour and
command-line syntax, so only compilers that act like gcc will work.
