That flag seems to have been added in FreeBSD 8.3 / 9.0 but strangely
our tunefs is out of date.

That has not been built/packaged yet for GNU/kFreeBSD.

We don't have the FreeBSD iostat yet. Maybe dstat does not know
how/where to find disk I/O stats on kFreeBSD.
On ZFS maybe 'zpool iostat' helps.

The rc initscript started it both times. Once from rcS.d and again from
rc2.d - that is a known bug #700245 but the fix hasn't been accepted
into wheezy.
I thought the error message is harmless - nfsd should still be running
after that error?
And it should always be using the options from /etc/default/nfsd?

Wonderful! Thanks a lot for your feedback.
