I've got the same bug. My upstart package is 1.3-0ubuntu11. The file /etc/network/interfaces contains:

auto lo eth1 eth1:0
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth1 inet static
        address 10.11.12.1
        netmask 255.255.0.0
        gateway 10.11.12.13
iface eth1:0 inet static
        address 192.168.1.254
        netmask 255.255.255.0

And on first boot after upgrade to 11.10 (from 9.10 if it's relevant) I've got no network interfaces eth1* at all - got them after 'mkdir /run/network && /sbin/ifup eth1'. I have no network-manager installed (don't want it to break my network/DNS settings). On next boot I've got all interfaces but still with big delay with those messages and I have not hit any key to boot. Tried to hit but nothing happened - still the same delay. Relevant fragment from my syslog file:

i.e. it succesfully got all interfaces up but then hung for 2 minutes with crasy messages. May be it's connected with the fact it is a new /run directory which has symlink /var/run ? I have /var on dedicated partition and I'm not sure if /var is already mounted at that time.
Hope it helps.
