This comes after ipconfig waitall... making me wonder...

##
# See if the network is up now
##
CheckForNetwork

# Set HOSTNAME if needed
if [ "${HOSTNAME:=-AUTOMATIC-}" = "-AUTOMATIC-" ]; then
HOSTNAME=$(ipconfig getoption "" host_name)
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
hostname "${HOSTNAME}"
fi
fi

I suspect that ipconfig would have to get host_name from netinfo.

Its seems clear that netstat -r relies on lookupd...

Which would tend to support the notion that ifconfig might as well.
(through syscall splicing).
