I personally prefer the CNAME approach for my own installation.  I run
Roundup behind Apache, on an Apache vhost with that name.  So far in
light testing I've been unable to "escape" from the published name to
the canonical name of the host, although of course I can get to the
tracker by using the canonical name.  So I don't really see a need for
PTRs to point to the published domain.
