Thanks, that helps a lot! I'm a little wary of this fix though, because 
the docs say pretty clearly "Please refrain from using primary_hostname 
unless you cannot avoid using it. It enhances the complexity of your 
configuration and leads to error issues that are a hell to debug. ".

That said, I don't see where the problems might arise here, so I think 
I'll do what you suggest, unless someone else can explain why it would 
be a bad idea!
