During some recent testing, mounts were mysteriously failing to some
servers but not to others. The mounts that were failure were in a very sparse
environment. Meaning very little in any supporting utilities, like
/bin/cat, /bin/ls or system-wide configuration files.
The reason the mounts were failing was /etc/netconfig did not exist.
Even in the cases when all the information that would have been pulled
from /etc/netconfig already existed or was easily attainable
So the patch tries to recover from when system files are inaccessible
and the need information already exists or is well known.

In a very sparse environments certain system files (like
/etc/netconfig) may not exist. In these environments don't
fail mount if all the need information (like network protocols)
exist and are well known.
