Accordig to <http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/distcc.xml>, this is not necessary. When "distcc" is listened in the FEATURES list in /etc/make.conf, emerge will use it. Well, should use it. If you like to use ccache and distcc for stuff you compile manually, add something like PATH=/usr/lib/ccache/bin:/usr/lib/distcc/bin:${PATH} to your /etc/profile.
