Chances are this wouldn't change for 'official' buildds. While not speaking on behalf of the ftpmaster team the impression I've gotten from Anthony at least is that emulated buildds begs the question of the architecture being useful and aren't exactly likely to be met with open arms. Apparently the feeling wrt distcc is somewhat different and is likely to be a more generally accepted solution to the slow-at-compiling issue. Stephen
