/* NAME

       xgethostname - get the host name.

   SYNOPSIS

       char *xgethostname (void);

   DESCRIPTION

       The xhostname function is intended to replace gethostname(2), a
       function used to access the host name.  The old interface is
       inflexable given that it assumes the existance of the
       MAXHOSTNAMELEN macro, which neither POSIX nor the proposed
       Single Unix Specification version 3 guarantee to be defined.

   RETURN VALUE

       On success, a malloced, null terminated (possible truncated)
       string containing the host name is returned.  On failure,
       NULL is returned and errno is set.
