Aside: I think this was because ipatest.foo.example.com was only in 
/etc/hosts, not in the DNS. Installation message:

ipa         : ERROR    unable to resolve host name 
ipatest.foo.example.com. to IP address, ipa-ca DNS record will be incomplete

But if it had used gethostent() or similar, it would have worked:

# getent hosts ipatest.foo.example.com
100.64.2.3      ipatest.foo.example.com ipatest
