Fixed in git now. git will order all remote mounts after both r-f-p.t
and n.t so that things should work fine.

The intention was to provide the network storage with a nice way how can
they can start services between the time the network is started and the
time remote mounts are applied. This is necessary for some network file
systems which need local auxiliary daemons to work.

Yupp, I fixed that too now: the r-f-p.t has no longer a [Install]
section. It's intended to be pulled in by services which need it as a
hook but should never be enabled explicitly by the user.
