Less then that, and a few more.
Your script for doing so would still be worth reporting on this list IMHO :)

distcheck currently makes the tarball,
extracts it into a dir which sets as read-only afterwards;
configures using all defaults except for install dir;
builds;
calls 'make check'
installs in the install dir;
calls 'make clean';
checks that everything got cleared
