Marc, when you dropped the 'exec sm-notify' call from the pre-start script, did you also remove the -L from the rpc.statd invocation? (You point out the -L option from the manpage, but don't comment on the fact that we *pass* -L by default.) Can you confirm Dave's comments that /var/lib is read-only when sm-notify tries to run? If so, then this is indeed a race condition that's already been pointed out in bug #525154: we have a tentative fix for this, which is to change the start condition in /etc/init/statd.conf to 'start on local-filesystems', but this needs some more thinking about other possble regressions before I'm willing to upload to lucid.
