We've got a similar problem here. On a Mac Pro with distributed builds enabled, the 4 Xeon cores site idle and send all the work on two Intel iMacs on the network. It's completely backwards.

Is there some secret defaults setting that can be changed to fix this?

Is there no way to use distributed compilation to remote machines AND to the host machine? For my PPC builds, I normally host from 1 of 2 dual G5's, the distribute to the other G5 and a dual G4. But sometimes I'll have one of the G5's busy doing other tasks (rendering, etc) and I don't want it in the pool. So I have a set that doesn't include that machine. But when I use that, I found that *all* the compiling is being done very slowly on the lowly G4, and the G5's CPU meters barely get a workout. I'd much rather have the G5 compiling at *least* one file along with the G4 getting a workout. I recall reading something about the host machine doing all the work of the distribution and everything that goes along with that, but it doesn't really seem like it takes all that much CPU for that.
