It is unlikely that the hosts issue will be fixed (it applies to more
than just NFS): use of NIS for host name resolution is fairly strongly
deprecated and I would expect that users with such a configuration will
not find reordering the init scripts as local configuration a
significant obstacle. Such configurations already require manual editing
of /etc/nsswitch.conf.

Using netgroups for access control is more likely to be fixed but it
seems more like something that should be addressed in NFS (in a similar
way to that in which network filesystems are managed in /etc/fstab, for
example) rather than or as well as in NIS. It might be worth opening a
separate bug for that?
