bwalex: Are you saying that the boot is actually waiting for these
mounts to timeout with nobootwait? That would be a pretty serious
problem, and not related to this bug.

The error message is a result of the fact that mountall just tries to
mount *all* filesystems in fstab, similarly to 'mount -a'. If one fails
its just noted and will be tried again.

The error message from mount.nfs is a bit misleading, as its saying DNS
failed but its really that contacting the host failed.

dblade, net-device-up is emitted every time a network device is
configured properly. This means either it was static and configured by
ifupdown, or its dynamic and dhclient configured it. So, the theory here
is that every time we get a new network device, we should try again in
case all filesystems haven't been mounted yet.

start on started networking only means that all static devices have been
configured, and all dhclients have been started. Any NetworkManager
based connections will be missed entirely.
