I take it from this that you didn't change the configuration and
vncserver started at boot.  This time without any errors in the log

That isn't a big deal.  First, I don't think there is any complaint
about RPC idmapd.  It is just that a "return" doesn't follow the start
message being sent to the log.  Second, the message about modprobe.conf
is just a warning.  It doesn't take any additional time for the boot
process.  If you want to get rid of the warning you can check the
contents of modprobe.conf and if there is anything there you can move it
to an appropriately named file in /etc/modeprobe.d.

If I get the chance I'll take a look at that.

FWIW, you can always hit "escape" at the start of the boot process and
watch all the messages.  When/if the process stalls you'll know where it
is happening.
