Sure, but the named scripts in question both have `REQUIRE: SERVERS'
while SERVERS has `REQUIRE: mountcritremote'. That should be enough
to make named start correctly for the OP (assuming his named chroot
dir is at least in `critical_filesystems_remote').

What about adding `PROVIDE: n' and `REQUIRE: n-1' to each rc script?
;-)
