distcc isn't smart enough for crosscompiling. Don't mix architectures (and gcc versions) like that please, it's guaranteed to fail sooner or later.
thanks for your answer. i use distcc on this machine with a x86_64 compile buddy since 2 years for the whole system. no problems, the only package failing is asterisk. there is even a gentoo distcc crossdev-compiling guide [1]. in my opinion this is a problem specific to asterisk and should be fixed. i'll help as good as as can. thanks.

Yes you can cross compile with distcc, but you have to write these wrappers mentioned in this document. (I just distributed a i686 kernel compilation to 4 amd64 quadcores.) And you have to have the exact same versions of the gcc/... tools as crossdev-* on the server as on the client. Can you please provide the `emerge --info` of both machine( classe)s? And the versions/categories of your cross-* packages? Michael
This is not a supported configuration; the Asterisk ebuild is not at fault. All distcc nodes should have the same CHOST.

Not a supported configuration. Do not reopen without a patch.
