As far as I know, this is not possible. (unless a nasty bug is
scribbling over random memory and resetting the hostname string?)
When a myth application instance starts up, it goes looking for
a database. Those settings are stored in the MythContextPrivate
object, and used for every database connection from them on.
I will try to reproduce the fault, but the only cause I can think
of is if another program (like mythbackend --generate-preview)
runs after the database has gone AWOL.
