Christopher, which shell are you using ?

When I try to do the same with distcc using bash (SuSE-9.1)

using gcc : 3.4.0 : "distcc /usr/local/gcc-3.4.0/bin/g++" ;

then bjam fails with

/bin/sh: line 2: distcc /usr/local/gcc-3.4.0/bin/g++: No such file or 
directory

"distcc /usr/local/gcc-3.4.0/bin/g++" -Wall ... (omitted)

because the quotes are not removed when building the command action.
This is due to the fact that gcc.jam states.

actions compile.c++
{
"$(CONFIG_COMMAND)" $(LANG) -Wall -ftemplate-depth-100 $(OPTIONS) 
- -D$(DEFINES) -I"$(INCLUDES)" -c -o "$(<)" "$(>)" 
}

and this leads to quotes inside quotes ...

I remember that the quotes around CONFIG_COMMAND were added due to 
white space issues on Win32.

I simply removed them on Linux, but would prefer a clean platform 
independent solution.

Yours,

Jürgen
