6 distcc only "farms out" the actual compiling. Pre-processing is done locally,
7 so it uses your local header files. Linking is also done locally, so it will
8 use your local libraries. [1]

10 That said, if you have incompatible compilers (e.g. gcc-3.3 vs. gcc-3.4) you
11 may have issues, and they may or may not be caught at link time.

19 [1] distcc tries to be smart when passed a command-line that would do both
20 compiling and (pre-processing or linking), but when it can't separate the
21 stages, it will end up using your local compiler.
