libmail-spf-query-perl is Arch: all and thus doesn't get built by the Debian build daemons, so there shouldn't be a real problem. I'll add "netbase" to Build-Depends-Indep (according to policy section 7.6). If you want testing to be removed entirely from libmail-spf-query-perl, just file a bug about the requirement of a working network connection.
