Yes, the problem here is that the information about the preconditions
for mounting this filesystem entry are encoded in the options field
using a filesystem-specific syntax.  mountall doesn't (and shouldn't)
know anything about this, so doesn't have enough information to mount
this at the correct time.

Does aufs support a value other than 'none' for the first field?  even
if it ignored it, if this pointed to a file path we could then use the
same handling for aufs as for bind mounts.  (Bind mounts are currently
*also* broken - bug #524972 - but then we could at least kill two birds
with one stone.)

As far as this breaking the boot and giving you no option to insert your
own local script: you can mark the filesystem 'noauto' in /etc/fstab,
and add an upstart job like this:

start on mounted MOUNTPOINT=/mnt/local/archiv
exec mount  /var/www/dav/Public

(or whatever the correct value for MOUNTPOINT is on your system)
