hmm... The warning is not comming from the forced starting of rpcbind.
If it were, it would appear before "starting rpcbind." I think its some other
service, maybe one of the yp* daemons. They require $portmap_enable
to be on, but they don't force rpcbind to start if its not. I think I will make 
a pass through the scripts and get rid of those required_variables and
just force whatever it is they need to start.

Yeah, it'll be there untill I get together with Gregory, which will be soon.

I will make it less icky one of these days.
