Bug#264615: Norwegian characters not allowed in hostname.

I tried setting my hostname to something including the 3 special
Norwegian characters, and was told that the hostname was invalid (no
surprise there), with the explanation that the hostname could only
contain alphanumeric characters and the minussign.
Clearly the 3 special Norwegian character are alphanumeric characters,
and the error message is misleading, and should say something to that
affect.
