Attempts several methods of getting the system hostname and
then caches the result.  It tries the first available of the C
library's \fBgethostname()\fR, \f(CW\`$Config{aphostname}\`\fR, \fBuname\fR\|(2),
\&\f(CWsyscall(SYS_gethostname)\fR, \f(CW\`hostname\`\fR, \f(CW\`uname \-n\`\fR,
and the file \fI/com/host\fR.  If all that fails it \f(CW\*(C`croak\*(C'\fRs.
.PP
All NULs, returns, and newlines are removed from the result.
