Building kernel version >=5.2.0 breaks distccd

Has anyone else noticed that compiling linux kernel 5.1.16 works fine with distcc but >=5.2.0 fails to distribute jobs?

Example trying to compile 5.2.0:

...
distcc[22629] (dcc_readx) ERROR: unexpected eof on fd5
distcc[22629] (dcc_r_token_int) ERROR: read failed while waiting for token "DONE"
distcc[22629] (dcc_r_result_header) ERROR: server provided no answer. Is the server configured to allow access from your IP address? Is the server performing authentication and your client isn't? Does the server have the compiler installed? Is the server configured to access the compiler?
distcc[22629] Warning: failed to distribute scripts/mod/devicetable-offsets.c to 10.1.1.102/5, running locally instead
distcc[22635] (dcc_readx) ERROR: unexpected eof on fd5
distcc[22635] (dcc_r_token_int) ERROR: read failed while waiting for token "DONE"
distcc[22635] (dcc_r_result_header) ERROR: server provided no answer. Is the server configured to allow access from your IP address? Is the server performing authentication and your client isn't? Does the server have the compiler installed? Is the server configured to access the compiler?
distcc[22635] Warning: failed to distribute scripts/mod/empty.c to 10.1.1.102/5, running locally instead
...

I'm thinking there is something in the upstream code that isn't honoring the old definitions? Whatever is causing this breakage, it has not been backported to the 4.19-lts series. I can build 4.19.61 with distcc working just fine. I found an older discussion on lkml about similar but the date of this being 8+ months ago doesn't seem right.

EDIT: opened #358
