It looks like we're not capturing all the logging we want to, because
rsyslog starts to late - it doesn't start until the filesystem is fully
available, whereas portmap starts as soon as local filesystems and
localhost are available.

You could try editing these lines in /etc/init/portmap.conf:

  start on (local-filesystems
          and net-device-up IFACE=lo)

to this:

  start on (local-filesystems
          and net-device-up IFACE=lo
          and started rsyslog)

This way, portmap doesn't try to start before logging is going.

>From the log you have, though, this is interesting:

This indicates that udevtrigger is the last dependency of both 'gdm' and
'networking' to finish loading; I would normally expect this to finish
sooner.  Do you have a lot of devices connected to this machine, or is
the machine just very fast and finishes loading filesystems very
quickly?

Please also post the contents of your /etc/network/interfaces file - one
explanation for portmap not starting would be that the init scripts
never see the loopback interface being brought up.
