I'd guess you configured NFS to provide both v3 and v4 services,
so the daemon needs to register with the portmapper when it starts
up. Your logfile should contain a message to that effect.

Stopping rpcbind later doesn't directly affect the daemon.
It just prevents clients from locating the NFSv3 service via the
portmap mechanism.

If I'm right, changing the NFS configuration to provide *only* v4
service should allow you to start the NFS service without the
portmapper.
