I'm using Xubuntu 12.04.2 LTS with mountall 2.36.4 and I'm affected by this bug too. It is causing the boot to take up a few minutes when before the update to mountall it took about 30 seconds. I worked up a temporary solution by changing fstab to include a line for /tmp as shown below. This resolved the long boot time and returned the boot time to about 30 seconds again.
