Umm.. hosts.sam is a "sample" file.  Windows doesn't need a hosts file
to operate.  There are some other .sam files (lmhosts.sam) comes to
mind - where no "Real" file is provided, and the user must create it
if necessary.

This would be like falling back to the hosts(5) manpage (on Linux) if
no /etc/hosts was found.
