Thanks for the suggestion, but it has still not solved the problem.

In fact there wasn't even a /compat/linux/etc/hosts file, so I created
one, containing the line:

127.0.0.1 localhost Dionysus

(Dionysus is the hostname of my machine).

Unfortunately this had no effect, even after unloading and reloading the
linux.ko module to ensure it parsed the new configuration file.
/compat/linux/etc/hosts.conf is set so it parses hosts first as well.

Any ideas?

It's completely bizarre, Linux emulation has always worked perfectly for 
me before...

John.
