The comment just above says

which has been there for a long time. If an NFS server *is* down, then
that will manifest itself with other files anyway, so I donʼt see why
weʼd need special handling here. I propose:
diff --git i/lisp/startup.el w/lisp/startup.el
index 4eb71abaac..ace4176ac5 100644
--- i/lisp/startup.el
+++ w/lisp/startup.el
