I have no idea what the problem was exactly, but I'm sure it was trivial. In
fact, I highly suspect it was just that I didn't restart distccd or something as
boring as that... I guess a good sleep + a good shower + a good coffee was what
I needed to get it working!
I tested several values of -j and all give pretty much the same results which is
about 15% acceleration (computers are 433MHz/128Mb(swaps-a-lot), 450MHz(512Mb)
and 700MHz(512Mb)). I don't think I should expect more acceleration, should I?
Anyway, thanks and now, let's update these ancient monsters!
