These should be set with their own utilities (distcc-config and ccache).
Distcc, for one, should be using /etc/distcc/hosts or ~/.distcc/hosts to
determine what hosts to use - NOT the envvar $DISTCC_HOSTS. Especially
given Portage's propensity to change envvars, and users who may want to
use different hosts (~/.distcc/hosts) or none at all (localhost).
