Ha! Guess who hasn't risked updating since the TI-RPC commit :-)

This change is necessary to support NFS installs and the use of
mount_nfs from the fixit/emergency shell. Since the ti-rpc code
was added, mount_nfs seems to require entries for 'nfs' and 'rpcbind'
in /etc/services, and the protocol information from the new
/etc/netconfig (requiring the 'nfs' entry in /etc/services seems
bogus).

If you try to use mount_nfs without these entries, you get treated
with one of the following uninformative errors:

	mount_nfs: can't get net id for host/nfs: servname not
	    supported for ai_socktype

	mount_nfs: can't access /home: Protocol not supported

	mount_nfs: rpcbind on server: RPC: Unknown host
