Same problem here: Under Hardy, when turning off my home network server (running the Hardy server edition), autofs-mounted shares will stall nautilus. The last few lines of an "strace nautilus --no-desktop" read:

socket(PF_FILE, SOCK_STREAM, 0) = 20
fcntl(20, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 0
fcntl(20, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0
connect(20, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/tmp/orbit-franz/linc-20cf-0-32e16af5e90ec"}, 49) = 0
writev(20, [{"GIOP\1\2\1\0v\0\0\0", 12}, {"\350O#\210\3\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\34\0\0\0\0\0\0\0y\210h\250\347"..., 118}], 2) = 130
poll(

The final "poll(" will seemingly hang forever. The mount points are bookmarked in nautilus, and doing the same under a diffferent user who has *not* bookmarked the NFS shares (e.g. as root) will bring up nautilus instantly. This leads to the conclusion that it might be a nautilus bug.
