#1221: New-style hostname (xo-XX-XX-XX) is set *after* Avahi starts, breaking the

It has been introduced to set the hostnames to xo-XX-XX-XX where XX-XX-XX
is the second half of your MAC address.
This is great however it appears to take effect *after* Avahi starts, so
Avahi still takes the host 'localhost' which means that your still going
to hit hostname conflicts,
And due to bug [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1219 Bug #1219], this will
cause the presence services to disappear.
