they are absolutely correct, without much of a stress of the
imagination the RFCs specify that the argumant has indeed to be the
FQDN.

well, I do not have your version (upgrade?), but in my default
configuration I see:

# Specify your host's canonical name here. This should normally be the fully
# qualified "official" name of your host. If this option is not set, the
# uname() function is called to obtain the name. In many cases this does
# the right thing and you need not set anything explicitly.

# primary_hostname =
