Hello,
I too want to exclude portmap from the standard task. In case you want
to install all the standard packages then aptitude warns you about a
conflict.
|vincent@PC-Vincent:~$ sudo aptitude install '?priority(standard)'
The following NEW packages will be installed:
portmap
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B/38.9 kB of archives. After unpacking 184 kB will be used.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
rpcbind: Conflicts: portmap but 6.0.0-3 is to be installed.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:
Remove the following packages:
1) nfs-common
2) rpcbind
Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] q
Abandoning all efforts to resolve these dependencies.
Abort.

'nfs-common' has dependecies with 'portmap' or 'rpcbind'. But the latest
version of 'nfs-common' can work correctly with 'rpcbind'. Every time I
reinstall the standard packages (I use a script with aptitude to update
the list of installed packages) I get a conflict that I have to resolve
in favor of 'rpcbind'.
I expect that this conflict will also exist when you install a new
Debian system with the standard task enabled. (I haven't checked it)
