Thanks Jeff.
A name lookup problem is certainly a good bet in a case like this, but
my hosts file is fine and I'm not running tinydns.
The problem was I had inadvertently added a blank line to the end of
/etc/hostname. The hostname applet in busybox,
hostname -F /etc/hostname
returned the blankl line, which apparently confused klogd. The standard
Debian hostname command works properly, returning the expected string.
