The delayed mounting of network filesystems support in -CURRENT hasn't
been merged onto RELENG_4 because of concerns expressed by rwatson over
NFS/PXE interaction.

I don't understand the concerns, and can't test PXE stuff myself.
Robert has kindly offered to try test this out himself, but isn't sure
he'll have time.

If anyone's in a position to help Robert test NFS/PXE interaction with
the new delayed mounting of network filesystems support in -CURRENT,
please send your offers to:

	Robert Watson <rwatson@FreeBSD.org>

Thanks,
Sheldon.
