Comment(by mcepl):

 Replying to [comment:1 rekkanoryo]:
 > Note that not all systems return the FQDN of a system when using
 `gethostname()`; on my three Debian machines, for example, only the
 leftmost portion of the FQDN is returned from `gethostname()`.

 Yes, but note that my patch just doesn't do anything in such case, so it
 shouldn't break anything for you.
