This isn't really a bug in Windows, since the official documentation
for Winsock[1] clearly states that the name returned by gethostname "can
be a simple host name, or it can be a fully qualified domain name."
Like many parts of Winsock, this is slightly different from the typical
behaviour of the POSIX function of the same name, which usually returns
a FQDN.
Actually, while the name returned by gethostname() is *usually* a FQDN
on a POSIX machine, I don't actually think it's guaranteed there,
either.
For a C solution, the code given by danb1974 should work. An easy way
to do it in pure PHP is, instead of just calling gethostname(), call
gethostbyaddr(gethostbyname(gethostname())).
Thanks,

Reopen, seems to be still valid.

It seems it's not enough to just gethostname. You have to do something
like this (this is not actual production code):
hostent *hent;
gethostname(hname, sizeof(hname));
hent = gethostbyname(hname);
strcpy(hostname, hent->h_name); // h_name is the official name
according to winsock api
