According to address@hidden on 3/3/2008 12:43 PM:
|    This  utility  is  responsible for the bina= ry
|    "hostname".
|    Now with coreutils this file isn't generated any more.
|    Is it dropped, or not longer supported ?

Neither.  Coreutils 6.10 still provides hostname, but you have to
specifically request it when running ./configure, otherwise it is not
installed (since there are other popular packages which provide a
competing version of hostname).  Check out the README for more details.
