/etc/hostname is system-dependend; SuSE has /etc/HOSTNAME and my debian 
has "hostname" instead of "hostname 153.90.199.xx".
This means you cannot fix it in a generic as suggested.

A sane thing would be creating a $vserver/etc/vconfig with something like:

hostname      $hostname
ips           $ips[*]
etchosts      $hostname $ips[*]
x-userdefined we want to pass a user-definedvalue to the vserver
...

This would enable the user to do the changes by script on each startup 
using a distribution-generic script or to create his very own system.
