+	builds will automatically parallelise to suit the number of hosts
+	you have listed in DISTCC_HOSTS.  This will work for both native
+	and cross builds of the c++ libraries, if you have the relevant
+	compilers on all your build hosts.  wxPython builds cannot be
+	parallelised at this stage and will run serially regardless of
+	your configuration.
