This is one of the cross-compilation guides I tried and failed to get to work.
https://archlinuxarm.org/wiki/Distcc_Cross-Compiling It's been a year or two since I last tried to get distcc working. I followed all those instructions but packages would only ever compile locally. I can't remember what other guides I tried but that one was the most directly relevant and most likely to work as I use Arch on all my machines, x86 and ARM.
