cfengine 2.0.3 and cfexecd output problem

[J . K . Wight]

Is anyone who is using 2.0.3 finding that cfexecd correctly mails
output to "sysadm"?

I have just started converting from 2.0.1 under RedHat 7.1 to 2.0.3
under RedHat 7.3, and am getting cfexecd output like this mailed to
root (by cron):

    Unknown host: Make sure that fully qualified names can be 
    looked up at your site!
    Make sure that fully qualified names can be looked up at your site!
    i.e. www.gnu.org, not just www. If you use NIS or /etc/hosts
    make sure that the full form is registered too as an alias!

It turns out that the unknown host that is being complained about
really is supposedly "Make sure that fully qualified names can be
looked up at your site!", i.e. a lump of text from elsewhere in
cfexecd.c. It sounds suspiciously like a pointer problem to me?

If I run cfexecd in the foreground with debugging on I get this in the
output:

cfpopen(/var/cfengine/bin/cfagent -z)
Got cfengine SMTP server as (Make sure that fully qualified names can be looked 
up at your site!)
Got cfengine sysadm variable (i.e. www.gnu.org, not just www. If you use NIS or 
/etc/hosts)
Got full qualified name (make sure that the full form is registered too as an 
alias!)
Got IP ()

I have compiled using 3 separate compilers - the default RedHat one (a
version of 2.96), and gcc 3.0.2 and 3.1 - but the result is the same
in all cases.
