Well it kindof does and dosent. If you just want simple almost round robin load balancing you can do the following:
In bind: cluster.mydomain.com. 0 IN A 123.123.123.1 cluster.mydomain.com. 0 IN A 123.123.123.2 cluster.mydomain.com. 0 IN A 123.123.123.3
NOTE: The 0 is for the time to live in a DNS cache, since you want it to load balance you should make it 0 seconds.
In ser: rewritehostport("cluster.mydomain.com:5060");
Keep in mind that this doesn't do anything if one of the machines fails. To deal with that use www.linux-ha.org and have the IP address moved.

We would like to do failover for our backend gateways. I though SRV records with different priorities would be an elegant solution to this. Does SER fully support SRV? Will it forward to the next prioritized address in the SRV
if the high priority address does not answer?
Nope
Does it do load-balancing using the weight entries in SRV records?
Nope.
Hopefully somebody might develop this support in the future,
