@haypo: You're right, RFC1178 is only a recommendation. RFC952 however is mandatory, although it doesn't seem to define <let-or-digit> explicitly (or at least i wasn't able to find it; thus referencing POSIX).

Regarding Arch Linux's hostname: It is part of the package inetutils v1.9.1-5 [1], which is GNU inetutils packaged [2]. Unfortunately I don't know which encoding it uses. I agree with you: It would be great if python supported it.

fyi: I opened a bug on Arch Linux [3] (thank you Dmi for the suggestion)
