I'm not sure you are really understanding the problem. We
don't want
to read RFCs or such professional sysadmin red books...

Sometimes we just want to nfs-mount things on the same
machine.

One more example: I don't like /var/news so I mount locally
/var/news
to /archive/news on the same system instead of using
symlinks. 
My rc.local manages it for me.

But, is it really so difficult to move portmap to /sbin.
Why?
Linux have portmap in /sbin and it runs.
