After a long round of bike-shedding, the result of the discussion was
that 'invocation-name' is not important, whereas a subset of users
argued strongly in favor of 'system-name'.

While I think the latter is superfluous and better added in an Init file
or site file, I think adding the buffer name and replacing
'invocation-name' with "GNU Emacs" is already a step forward.

I therefore suggest to install the attached patch.
