For anyone interested, my problem recently with jobs not distributing (noticed on 2.18.1) was in fact my own error. My CFLAGS got partially polluted by my LDFLAGS (adding -s to CFLAGS) which made distcc test for servers listed in /etc/distcc/hosts, but then run the job locally ( -s forces distcc to use local compilation [0]). I found the problem intermittently popping back up, so taking Martin's advice I set client and server into verbose logging mode and found the answer in the verbose client log.
Thanks Martin. I hope no-one else is silly enough to suffer the same problem now.
