Don't include <sys/types.h> or "exit.h"; no longer needed.
(errno): Remove decl; we now assume C89 or better. Include unistd.h if available, for gethostname. (ENAMETOOLONG): Define to 0, not 9999, to avoid colliding with existing errno values if any. (gethostname): Remove decl, since unistd.h declares it (or doesn't, in which case it's an older system and it should just work). (xgethostname): Don't assume host name length is less than INT_MAX. Exit if malloc fails, just as the comment says.
