Watch Out... missing 'localhost'

Please be on the look out for some network configuration tool in FC2 that leaves /etc/hosts without "localhost" entries. I just discovered that my system /etc/hosts was blank with only the following lines after using netconfig and neat several times switching between DHCP, static, and dialup networking... so I don't know what caused it.

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.

This seems to have exposed problems of robustness in services IIim and sendmail. Investigating those now.
