I, and rest of the server people, were hit by this or some other 
upstart/mountall/whatever bug that renders Karmic unusable in NFS 
environment.

However, there's an easy workaround for this situation. Mount /home 
outside of /home. For example, mount it in /media/home and then add:

mount -o bind /media/home /home

in /etc/rc.local

Machine will boot (it fails to boot cause IP/portmap/something_else is 
up after "mounting network file system process") and rc.local will run 
before GDM is up anyway.
