Subject: gethostname on 64-bit Windows
I needed the attached change to cross compile Octave for i686-w64-mingw32.
Without it, rpl_gethostname was undefined because w64 has a gethostname function
so gethostname.c is not added to the list of files to build but gethostname was
still being redefined to rpl_gethostname.

This is not related to your patch.
The hostname Mingw w64 64 bit is x86_64-w64-mingw32.
The hostname Mingw w64 32 bit is i686-w64-mingw32.
Sorry, I copied the wrong system ID into the message. It should have been:
x86_64-w64-mingw32
I was cross compiling to x86_64-w64-mingw32, which appears to have a
gethostname function (HAVE_GETHOSTNAME is defined to 1) but without my
patch, the code in gnulib's unistd.in.h file will define gethostname to
rpl_gethostname, and gethostname is not added to gl_LIBOBJS and
gl_LTLIBOBJS. I think it is sufficient to just avoid the #define in
this case.
