Well, I have applied both recommendations, and yet the machine just had the same
behaviour while rsync'ing data to the newly created RAID5. Again, the system
was kind of "up" but no command could be typed and services did not respond
anymore. Everything was frozen.

Could one of those mount flags cause any harm with a RAIDframe array ?

/dev/dk0 on /export type ffs (asynchronous, log, noatime, NFS exported, local)

Just to be clear, the trivial dd(1) test as of the rsync took place locally
on the server, no network transfers yet.
