Hmm... but then cook tries to generate command lines like:

  distcc computer26 gcc -c foo.c

using a parallel_hosts variable that I set.  I need cook to
generate simple

  distcc -c foo.c

or

  distcc gcc -c foo.c

lines, just several threads at once.  DistCC takes care of
distributing the load over the various "volunteer" clients
you list in its configuration files.

I'd hoped that cook would be fooled into thinking I had, in
effect, a multi- processor box.
