i had very similar behavior and it was because of how i was running
the nfsd on the netbsd side.  it turned out i wasn't specifiying any
transport when i started nfsd (i just ran "nfsd"), and as a
consequence, (so i've concluded), none was running.  the mount would
succeed but it'd just hang waiting for a response from the nfs
server.  running with some options to specify UDP and/or TCP fixed 
the problem for me.  hope that's of some help...
