Little note: with Gentoo/FreeBSD I tried avoiding providing CHOST in 
make.conf, as to change to non-i686 CHOST you need to rebuild everything, as 
the stage is currently i686-centric, I'm sorry of that, I'll try to 
automatize a more complete building when I'll have time.

The problem of this is that distcc-config looks inside make.conf for CHOST 
instead of using portageq envvar CHOST, so it just breaks :P
I think other things might do the same assumption of finding CHOST in 
make.conf, and beside being plainly wrong, I'm not sure if I want to break 
everything ;)
