Fix for distcc issue 102 <http://code.google.com/p/distcc/issues/detail?id=102>:
"all servers busy" dcc_lock_pause is hardcoded at 1 sec, could be tunable. Makes the pause time tunable via a new env var DISTCC_PAUSE_TIME_MSEC. The default remains set for 1 second. git-svn-id: http://distcc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@760 01de4be4-8c4a-0410-9132-4925637da917
