This magic string value seems a bit unwholesome.  Can't you just check
against the empty string?

Also, if the problem is that the static hostname set here is overriding
the one from dhcp or the command line, I wonder whether this just
indicates that the priority of them is wrong and the scripting should be
adjusted so that the static file has lower priority than the other two
things.
