Not quite sure what you mean with "other fix"? Can you elaborate?

You can't eat a cake and have it too.
Either we wait blockingly (and wait actually means, well, delaying your
boot process and making it slower) for ifup to complete during boot as
workaround for broken software which doesn't deal with dynamic network
changes and requires $network, or we don't blockingly wait and cause
that other software to break.

For jessie we decided to take that boot delay hit in exchange for
supporting $network requiring software.
