I tried changing /etc/init/ypbind.conf reversing the conditions just to test
   start on (started portmap ON_BOOT=y
        or (started portmap ON_BOOT=
            and ((filesystem and static-network-up) or failsafe-boot)))

The boot process delayed in 2 points (between 9 to 19 sec and after 30 sec)

ypbind started successfully!

Does this verify your assumptions of where the problem is?
