Or not? I mean, if you use

module          /hurd/ext2fs.static ext2fs [...] 
--exec-server-task='${exec-task}' '$(task-create)' '$(task-resume)'
module          /lib/ld.so.1 exec /hurd/exec '$(exec-task=task-create)'
module          /hurd/yourmodule.static yourmodule '$(task-resume)'

Both ext2fs.static and yourmodule.static will start in parallel.
Alternatively you could add an option to ext2fs.static to make it
task_resume() a series of tasks when the bootstrap process if finished
(similarly to how it gets a port on the exec task with ${exec-task})
