Hmm, there still is this NFSMNT_INT flag that can be set with `-o -i'
(all nfs mount options are one-letter options now).

On another note, nfs_bio.c claims that `physio' need no longer be handled:	

	/*
	 * Historically, paging was done with physio, nut no more.
	 */

This is unfortunately not true when reading /dev/drum and the swap file is
NFS mounted. This will cause panics when running eg. ps(1).
