That doesn't sound right.  The order of the rc.d scripts is set up to
allow NFS mounts:

: gothmog:/root# rcorder /etc/rc.d/* | egrep -e 'ipfw|mount'
: /etc/rc.d/mountcritlocal
: /etc/rc.d/ipfw
: /etc/rc.d/mountcritremote
: /etc/rc.d/mountd
: gothmog:/root#

Are you sure you are not blocking NFS mounts in your firewall ruleset?
