I think distcc has some code that makes assumptions about the language based on the file extension. That code would need to change in order to properly support "-x". The reason I added code to support -x is the ada multi-language build tool > "gprbuild" by default adds -x for all languages it supports.

That might be easier than supporting it properly, and might be sufficient for use with "gprbuild". Agree that max_discrepancies_before_demotion = 10000000 (or whatever large > number) is wrong for c/c++ and ada too, but 1 seems too strict.
