No.

NetBSD is the server in my case, so it's the other systems that would
need something like mount_umap.

I run Linux right now because of excellent video support and SGI's xfs
filesystem, so I'd need it there and eventually in another UNIX system,
or two or three or... and that's the problem.

But anyway, thanks for the tip for NetBSD anyway, I didn't know
about that option.
