OK, thanks, I revised the patch to do that, and made the var obsolete, and 
installed something along those lines into the master.  (It was 3 patches not 
one because I installed the wrong version first, sorry.)  Marking this as done.

I just moved from one network to another and find that my long running
Emacs no longer has the right value for (system-name).

I am seeing this: (system-name) => Leos-MacBook.local

but a freshly-started emacs gives me: 014136144036.static.ctinets.com

It turns out system name is not computed dynamically. Could someone fix
this problem? Thanks.

Leo
