See the point, but currently portsentry is started as late as possible in the
system startup porcess. This is done cause the -atcp|audp options allow
portsentry to bind to all unused network ports below 1024, so all other
network daemons should be up before it is started. Until then everything
should be mounted.

I think it imporves security a lot but is not "security critical".
