Perhaps this is better because /etc/init.d/portmap can be left behind if
it isn't purged (this is also shorter):

        if [ "$start_nfs" = yes ] && [ -x /etc/init.d/nfs-common ]
        then
            [ -x /etc/init.d/portmap ] && /etc/init.d/portmap start
            [ -x /etc/init.d/rpcbind ] && /etc/init.d/rpcbind start
            /etc/init.d/nfs-common start
        fi

I've tested this and it works correctly on my system. A slightly nicer
solution would be to put something in /etc/init.d/nfs-common.
