FWIW it isn't entirely clear to me that my config is buggy.
Unfortunately I don't recall how I got it this way -- I suspect I did
a standard Fedora install but did not specify a domain name (IOW, this
may not affect just me).  I don't really have a domain I would put my
machine in, and I think a reasonable number of people may fall into
this category.  Emacs picking "localhost.localdomain" over the actual
name of my machine still seems a bit odd.
