[sg]ethostid(3) and FHS

Hi!

/var/adm does not exist in FHS for quite some time, yet
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/gethostid.c still references (/var/adm/hostid),
which means gethostid and sethostid don't work for quite some time.
Any ideas on what's the best path to replace it with?
From quick skimming of FHS 2.1 it looks like /var/lib/hostid or
/var/lib/misc/hostid could be ok...

	Jakub
