I don't know exactly what is wrong, but I think that the problem
must be caused by or related to the "gethostname" module from
Gnulib.  I noticed that PSPP doesn't actually use the
gethostname() function any longer, so I've now deleted that from
the list of Gnulib modules that PSPP imports.  Perhaps if you
start over from a new "master" checkout, that will make the
problem go away.
