Yes, routinely.  Current DHCP returns 204.127.202.19 as the
nameserver which does not itself have a reverse resolution.
Using VisualRoute I find that 204.127.202.19 is 14 hops away
(from my home in Cambridge) probably in NY.  Having gotten
tired of this, I just hardwire in nameservers at MIT and
Harvard and forget about it; they're closer anyway.
