Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and help to improve
Ubuntu.

What kernel version were you running before this upgrade? None of the
(many!) changes in the -20 uploads look very likely to be related, so it
may be that there's an underlying race condition that's aggravated by
timing differences in the new kernel.

And indeed there is an underlying race condition, because
/etc/init/portmap.conf may run in parallel to /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf.

The correct fix is to switch nfs-kernel-server over to upstart for
lucid, to eliminate the race condition.  As a workaround, you can edit
/etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf on your own system, and add 'and started
portmap' to the list of start conditions.
