at least in dapper, i couldn't tell if that's what this bug was attached to, you can remove /etc/hostname and the hostname from the server will be used. however, there is the problem that if you do this and there isn't an entry for the ip address, the /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-script will set the hostname to blank which is no good. sudo will no longer work for starters. i think that might should be a different bug.
