If you're going to build kernels with distcc then you need the same toolchain on all machines, so you probably build it with crosstool. Or if you want a consistent, tested, internally-maintained build environment then you use a specific toolchain so your developers aren't dependent on whatever their distro happened to put in /usr/bin > > config AS_VERSION > eval as --version | awk '{ ... }' > > ?
