kernel cross-build troubles

Hello-

Thanks for ccontrol.

I'm having a bit of difficulty when trying to use two i386 PCs to
cross-build Linux kernels using ccontrol 0.9.1.  Native builds cache
and distribute fine.  But enabling both ccache and distcc for 64-bit
powerpc cross-builds fails for me -- somehow the native compiler is
being invoked when the cross compiler should be.  Disabling either
ccache or distcc in my config file makes things work.  I've also
verified that ccache and distcc are working correctly for cross builds
without ccontrol.

Here is my config (sorry for the long paths):

[*]
        cc = /toolchains/gcc-4.1.0-glibc-2.3.5/i686-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/i686-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc
        ld = /toolchains/gcc-4.1.0-glibc-2.3.5/i686-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/i686-unknown-linux-gnu-ld
        make = /usr/bin/make
        cpus = 2
        ccache = /usr/bin/ccache
	distcc = /usr/bin/distcc
	distcc-hosts = hawkeye localhost
	no-parallel

[*linux-ppc64*]
        add make = ARCH=powerpc
        add make = CROSS_COMPILE=/toolchains/gcc-4.1.0-glibc-2.3.5/powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-
        add make = LD=ccontrol --section=cross-ppc64 ld
        add make = CC=ccontrol --section=cross-ppc64 cc
        
[cross-ppc64]
        ld = /toolchains/gcc-4.1.0-glibc-2.3.5/powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-ld
        cc = /toolchains/gcc-4.1.0-glibc-2.3.5/powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc

And here is a build log (with /usr/lib/ccontrol first in my PATH):

Any suggestions?
