its using the default value which happens to be ~/.distcc

its for user configured information for example $DISTCC_DIR/hosts contains the
hosts that distcc will use so its nice making it per user since each user 
doing
different compiles can use different hosts if they want. And technically we
always have been stuffing this into the users home directory we just didn't 
know
about it because distcc was using this by default.

I don't know why I'd have to rtfc the distcc code to figure out why setting
DISTCC_DIR is somehow breaking the system... It could be that we need to 
create
the .distcc directory in source directory first... I'll test that this 
weekend...
