This seems oddly similar to bug #862928 , which states that it is about NetworkManager, but is really the same problem.

net-device-up IFACE!=lo is not sufficient. Some servers have many network interfaces, and the remote network services they provide should not be started until all of them are up.

On 11.10 and later, this is handled by the static-network-up event, which gates runlevel 2 (or at least, slows it down for 2 minutes until we kick off the failsafe boot). I wonder if this problem still exists on Ubuntu 11.10.
