Ubunutu, for example, defaults to this situation. It uses the default ServerName, which is indeed taken from the hostname. This is actually an Ubuntu bug if they have no ServerName in the main server context, because this forces Apache to do a reverse DNS lookup at startup, needlessly placing a dependency on DNS. All apache configs should have a main context ServerName, even if you know it will never be used for anything.
