I've purged the remains of the 'portmap' package and rebooted. There are no more mentions of 'portmap' in /var/log/syslog. statd continues to fail in the same fashion.
I'm attaching the entire syslog since last boot, just in case. There's something else I noticed that might be relevant: local filesystems are mounted *after* statd fails to come up.
