Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1389558

Description of problem:

Under some situations when dealing with the duplicate host problem, one or both of the hosts do not have a mac address. This makes the existing unify_hosts script not work properly since it is based on mac addresses for safety. We need a way to run it based purely on hostnames.

Its not clear how to get into this situation.
