No, it does not work when dnsmasq is installed. At least, not reliably. I discovered this when apache2 started ignoring the configuration for my virtual hosts because it couldn't resolve the virtual host names. I could reach some hosts, like archive.ubuntu.com for instance whenever I did an apt-get update, or I would have noticed it right away.

When dnsmasq is installed, and static IP addresses are used, resolv.conf creates a nearly empty /etc/resolv.conf file. The file only contains entries for localhost and the search domain. If static IP addresses are defined in /etc/network/interfaces, then shouldn't those DNS servers should be included in /etc/resolv.conf regardless of the presence of dnsmasq?
