Certainly an impediment in ours...  We have all kinds of hackery to make 
sure that "make distcheck" works for each package.

I have even considered shipping a DNS config, and installing a DNS 
server on an alternate port...  but not too many setups permit one to 
override the DNS query port or otherwise permit substitution of an 
alternate DNS service.
