Well, it has a non-ASCII character in it, so I wouldn't be surprised if this 
was the issue :)

Latest master (3.6):

>>> import socket
>>> socket.gethostname()
'Émanuel-PC'
>>> socket.gethostbyaddr(socket.gethostname())
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
socket.gaierror: [Errno 11004] getaddrinfo failed

Python 2.7.11:

>>> import socket
>>> socket.gethostname()
'\xc9manuel-PC'
>>> socket.gethostbyaddr(socket.gethostname())
('\xc9manuel-PC.home', [], ['fe80::c9b7:5117:eea4:a104'])
