I suppose whatever tries to access NDB has a bug in it... but what
would that be?
Do you have lvm installed (/sbin/lvm)?
If so, the Gentoo startup script /sbin/rc will try to execute it after
starting udev to probe for physical volumes, volume groups, and logical
volumes.
The default configuration of lvm probes _all_ block devices, so this is
a probable suspect. You can try adding a filter to /etc/lvm/lvm.conf in
this case, like so:
filter = [ "r|/dev/nbd.*|" ]
As for whether it should or shouldn't happen, I am not sure. I don't
know how common it is to use network block devices...it is definitely a
high-end feature. I would guess that anyone using nbd would also be
interested in using lvm, so it is probably more useful to have lvm probe
these devices if they exist.
