It's assumed that if you're going to boot to single-user mode, you're
going to check the disks yourself.  To do it differently would cause
problems, in the case of:
	boot to multi-user
	"shutdown"
	do dumps from single user mode (or whatever operation you please)
	hit control-D to go back to multi-user mode.

The reason why ypbind checks to see if /var/yp exists is so that it
can do the right thing with the /var/yp/binding(s?) directory...

actually, it's a problem for any ports which allocate cblocks.  You
shouldn't be allocting cblocks, as NetBSD doesn't use real clists...
