I ran into the same problem...  It seems to be related to the umountall
script running umount -a which I think tries to unmount all file systems
in parallel.  I think it hangs in a wait condition because it cant unmount
/afs.

What worked for me was to change /etc/rc0 to have two umountall lines.

umountall -r  (for remote/NFS stuff)
umountall -l  (for local file systems)

This forces the umountall script to unmount in a serial fashion which
works.
