hostid is a long, and that ship has sailed, but still 64-bit archs should
not truncate the value.
I would like somebody to test this on a 64-bit machine. Even try
setting a 64-bit hostid maybe.

This might be useful.. but POSIX defines a hostid as 32-bit, however the use of
'long' makes it ambiguous.

Not sure if anything actually would break if you bumped this, do you know if
anything relies on it? or was it mainl
