[Buildbot-devel] "master hostname" property for a buildStep?

[Axel Hecht]

http://docs.python.org/lib/module-socket.html#l2h-3643 seems like it
could have python apis for that. Of course there's a whole lot that
could go wrong on the way, I guess, in terms of firewalls and NATs and
all that stuff.
