This also applies to NFS. I've several times hit the power switch of
my Amiga, giving me no end of trouble with NFS mounts on NetBSD.
I can't unmount or re-mount a dead NFS, and worse than that,
my patience ran out when doing "halt" on the NetBSD (the halting took
very very long). And I also have tried with "-R" and "-f".

This'd be on NetBSD 1.5 and 1.5.1.
