[Bug 46959] Changing hostname breaks numlock state saving

Public bug reported:

1. Set the /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/remember_numlock_state to on and switch on numlock on the keyboard.
2. Log out and log in again.
3. Change the computer's hostname.
4. Log out and log in.
5. Remembering numlock no longer works.

This probably has a lot to do with the fact that gconf records the
numlock state in a key called
/desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/host-$hostname/0/numlock_on

As a side note I have no idea how to fix this afterwards!

** Affects: gconf (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed
