Where I work, we couldn't find a way to do this. So we implemented our own task to do it for us. The implementation itself was trivial (just call InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName() in the execute() method and store it in a user-specified property), but I can see about making it available if you (or anyone else) is interested.
