I also have this problem, but in my case, the NFS share is _not_ mounted. From the console:

[...]
fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
/dev/mapper/tore.users-varlog: clean, 198/262144 files, 28568/524288 blocks
Starting SpamAssassin Mail Filter Daemon: mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking.
mount.nfs: Either use '-o nolock' to keep locks local, or start statd.
mountall: mount /backup [441] terminated with status 32
spamd.
[...]

When the machine has finished booting, /backup is not mounted. Running "mount /backup" after the machine is up works without any problems. The relevant line in /etc/fstab is:

nfs:/export/backup /backup nfs defaults,hard,intr 0 0
