Title:
upgrade to karmic
I think this is distinct from bug 432888; the string in Nathaniel's
/etc/hosts does not appear anywhere in ubiquity/oem-config's code base.

Well, that said, the fact that /etc/hosts was removed on upgrade may
have been the fault of oem-config running (bug 432180). However, the
fact that malformed text was written to it (the missing newlines, etc.)
is definitely a network-manager bug.
** Package changed: update-manager (Ubuntu) =
./src/NetworkManagerPolicy.c:320: g_string_append
(new_contents, # Do not remove the following line, or various
programs);

Could you please run (in a terminal):
$ grep 'Do not remove the following line' /var/lib/dpkg/info/*
update-manager itself does not touch this file, but something in the packages
upgraded might.

That grep command finds no hits.
OTOH:
~$ dpkg -S etc/hosts
dpkg: *etc/hosts* not found.
So *something*'s creating it, I'm just not sure what.
/usr/lib/ubiquity/netcfg/netcfg seems to have some /etc/hosts-related
code, though not the actual line you quoted. This is relevant because of
bug
Some googling around suggests that the particular phrasing in that
comment (various programs that require network functionality etc.) is
common on Redhat/anaconda-derived systems? Curious.

Also, note that this was not the only hostname-related weirdness I had
created by the karmic upgrade: see also #432888, in case they are
related.
