Some can. Not all. The hostname mechanism is explained in very much detail here: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/hostnamed As suggested a couple of times I believe the mode of cooperation with the Solaris/BSD folks here should be to share those interfaces, not the code behind it. Something similar is true for the locale/timezone/time mechanisms.
