Looking at src/w32.c it seems you are implementing (sys_)gethostname()
which, if I understood, is also used on other *nix systems.
gethostname() seems the right routine because on MSYS2 shell I get:
$ env | grep -i foobar
HOSTNAME=FooBar
COMPUTERNAME=FOOBAR
or, if you prefer,
$ echo $COMPUTERNAME $HOSTNAME
FOOBAR FooBar
I wonder what are the "contraindications" in using gethostname() from
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms738527(v=vs.85).aspx
After all, if Start / Setting / Systems / Info shows the PC name in the
right case, a way should exist to do the same in Emacs.
In any case this is only a little noise.
Thanks,
Angelo.
