It would introduce a cyclic dependency between $remote_fs and
mountnfs-bootclean, and mountnfs-bootclean really ought to be run before
starting other services depending on $remote_fs.

Incidentally, /etc/insserv.conf lists mountnfs-bootclean as a dependency
of $remote_fs, but mountall-bootclean is not a dependency of $local_fs.
Should it be?
