I uncommented the rc_hotplug line in rc.conf and rebooted and it worked! The volumes were found and mounted. Fantasia! Now I rebooted again having tried to shut of dhcpcd, using rc-update del net.lo because I'd rather do that manually, but not only do the volumes not mount, dhcpcd is still running and taking its own sweet time finding out there is no net service available at this location unless it involves a phone line.
Guess you're right, I don't want hotplugging. Another strangeness: under init.d the two links depscan.sh and runscript.sh came up as broken(flashing red) when the volumes WERE mounted and now that they ARE NOT mounted the links are intact. Defies logic :-(
