I doubt it. It's a very common error, bind 8+ even has a logging category for it. Most MTAs have 'workarounds' for this.
More to the point, most resolvers process CNAMEs transparently, and those that don't tend to be in places that don't have to relay mail, so the MTA doesn't have to worry about it. <mutters dark things about certain braindead resolvers not handling CNAMEs for reverse map entries> BTW: I put together a little DNS checker a while ago; a few folks will have seen it already.
