This is not a bug. I posted to current-users some time ago that folks
will want to make sure and update their /etc/netstart and /etc/rc
files, since /var/yp would always exist.
The relevant entry from doc/CHANGES is:
Added the ypserv suite written by Mats O Jansson, with
some changes by me. Changed the way YP daemons
are started in /etc/rc. [thorpej 960809]
ypserv, ypbind, and friends now depend on configuration variables
set in /etc/netstart.
