$ /etc/rc.d/mountd onestart
/etc/rc.d/mountd: WARNING: /etc/exports is not readable.
Exit 1

Actually /etc/exports did not exist at all.
And this was not a "WARNING", this was a fatal error, mountd did not start.

Alsp, should it actually fail like this?  I have ZFS and I plan to do
all NFS exports from ZFS, so /etc/exports would never be used.
