I'm running another machine also exporting file systems and it doesn't
have a problem.

The file server, however, had been rebooted out from under two
diskless clients.  I don't recall if that was the case in the previous
instance.  I've done that before with no problem, although this was
the first time under netbsd-8.

One would think it would do it every time, but why it worked fine on a
subsequent reboot is puzzling.
