11 I had problems building glibc with distcc in the past (it would segfault
12 when linking something -- can't remember what). Aside from this, you can
13 watch your logs on the distccd machines (whatever you have the daemon
14 facility pointing to in your syslog configuration -- /var/log/daemon.log by
15 default). You should see that log moving whenever you're building
16 something via portage. You *won't* see "distcc gcc" in the make process
17 because the distcc FEATURE rewrites the path with /usr/lib/distcc/bin as
18 the first item where links for all gcc binaries exist pointing to distcc --
19 making it very transparent. In any case...it is probably better to build
20 glibc without distcc; other than that, everything else worked fine for me.
