Well, I just figured it out -- sort of.

Looks like not only do I have to run rpcbind, rpc.statd,
and rpc.lockd on the server I must run all three on the
client as well.

Suddenly passwd and adduser work just fine!  :-)

Now for the "sort of" statement.

I added the necessary entries into the rc.conf of the 
exported filesystem but it failed to start up the
services.  I didn't see any mention of rpcbind in the
boot messages but I did see this:

rpc.statd: svc_tp_create: Could not register prog 100024 vers 1 on udp6
rpc.statd: svc_tp_create: Could not register prog 100024 vers 1 on udp
rpc.statd: cannot create udp service
Starting lockd.
rpc.locd: unable to register (NLM_PROG, NLM_SM, udp)

Also, I noticed that when the system is mounting
filesystems it complains that the filesystem is read
only and so creates a memory disk for /var !!  No
wonder I don't get the systems messages showing up in
/var/log !

Progress!  Now if I can just figure these things out...

;-)
