hostname of coreutils version has 2 issues: 1) need to disable doc/man generation to make do_compile pass; 2) it doesn't support -F : http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded/commit/?id=f2e1da7559d1798ae8314d8824c8d53da0b3506b so we have to fix(or hack) poky's meta/recipes-core/initscripts/initscripts-1.0/hostname.sh if we decide to use it. After discussed with Saul, I think we may as well choose to do nothing to coreutils and endure the warning caused by busybox's hostname.
