hostname not reading /etc/hostname

[Anthony Campbell <a.campbell@doctors.org.uk>]

I've just noticed that hostname doesn't read /etc/hostname when called with
the command "hostname --file /etc/hostname". This may be because I'm using
kernel 2.2.10 in slink. I've had to modify /etc/rcS/d/S40hostname.sh to
make it work.
