Hi.  I'm using distcc 2.18.3 as installed by gentoo portage, on ix86
architecture.  Distcc gives a segmentation fault when it is launched,
leaving the local compiler running as a zombie process that cannot be
killed:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/portage/sys-devel/distcc $ distcc cc
distcc[17149] (dcc_trace_version) distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu; built Sep

Segmentation fault

aelber   17159 22984  0 14:32 pts/3    00:00:00 grep --colour=auto 17150

I have not been able to find any information on this by googling or checking
forums.  I've tried reinstalling distcc, etc., to no avail.  My gcc is 3.4.6.


During portage-initiated compiles, with distcc active this problem causes
the configure stage to fail at the point of checking whether cc can make
executables.

I appreciate your help in advance.
