+Summary: UnixEnvironment.MachineName throws exceptions for long hostnames
+
+The implementation of Mono.Unix.UnixEnvironment.MachineName is throwing an
+exception when the host name of a system is longer than or equal to 16
+characters.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Change system host name to something longer than or equal to 16
+characters. The host name "thisisaverynicehostname" will be used here.
+2. Compile and run this code:
+
+using System;
+using Mono.Unix;
+
+class Foo {
+
+       public static void Main (string[] args)
+       {
+               Console.WriteLine (UnixEnvironment.MachineName);
+       }
+}
+
+(i.e. save it as test.cs and compile with: gmcs test.cs -r:Mono.Posix)
+
+Actual Results:
+Unhandled Exception: System.OutOfMemoryException: Out of memory
+  at <0x00000> <unknown method>
+  at (wrapper managed-to-native) System.String:InternalAllocateStr (int)
+  at System.Text.StringBuilder.InternalEnsureCapacity (Int32 size)
+[0x000b1] in
+/build/buildd/mono-1.2.3.1/mcs/class/corlib/System.Text/StringBuilder.cs:681 
+  at System.Text.StringBuilder.set_Capacity (Int32 value) [0x00017] in
+/build/buildd/mono-1.2.3.1/mcs/class/corlib/System.Text/StringBuilder.cs:142 
+  at Mono.Unix.UnixEnvironment.get_MachineName () [0x0000b] in
+/build/buildd/mono-1.2.3.1/mcs/class/Mono.Posix/Mono.Unix/UnixEnvironment.cs:55
+
+  at Foo.Main (System.String[] args) [0x00000] 
+
+Expected Results:
+The text: "thisisaverynicehostname" should pe printed to terminal.
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Every time
+
+Additional Information:
+This bug has been confirmed on various systems and versions of mono
+(including SVN). I am using mono version 1.2.3.1 as included with Ubuntu 7.04.
