Yes.  First, send problem reports to the Cygwin list.  The Cygwin apps list
is for packaging issues and 'setup.exe' discussions/issues.  Please respect
the Reply-To I've set and remove cygwin-apps from the recipient list if you
intend to follow-up on this thread.

Second, install the 'coreutils' package.  You're calling the Windows
'hostname' executable.  You need the Cygwin one.
