I'd say yes to integrate this service, because it's a basic
connectivity service. In this case a very small package, that
doesn't cost many K's in the source tree.

If you do so, I'd recommend to add a sample /etc/rpc.pcnfsd file
into /etc. You can find some examples in the manpage of pcnfsd.

One should set a sample uid-range and perhaps an example of
sharing the default lineprinter lp.
