>Description:
In man page of mount_nfs(8), it is described that -o conn 
has the same function as -c has.  But the real behaviour of 
-c seems different from that of -o conn.  I think -c and -o 
noconn will be commutative.  
>How-To-Repeat:
Mounting a directory from a file server with multiple 
interfaces, we need to give -c option for mount_nfs.  By 
replacing the option with -o conn, we can see that the 
mount process does not end.  However -o noconn establish 
the mount as -c does.  
>Fix:
I have no idea to fix the problrem.  And I am not sure that 
the man page is wrong or the implementation od mount_nfs is 
wrong.  But amd has an option noconn which has the similar 
function as -c of mount_nfs.  I guess the man page might be 
wrong.
