Oops, time to answer my own question. distcc-livecd |
| 18 |
(http://distcc-livecd.sourceforge.net/) does what I need. However, I'm |

not sure if the version of GCC on the CD being different than the main |
| 20 |
system (3.4 vs 3.3) would create problems. Any experiences with such |
| 21 |
potential problems? |
