I see the very same here on FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT boxes (two boxes acting
as NFSv4 server). The clients (all FBSD 10, one 9.1-STABLE) have two(!)
identical mounts of the very same filesystem.

/etc/fstab does contain the mount option "bg", but not "retrycnt=3D0".

This behaviour happens on ALL FBSD 10.0-CURRENT boxes I administer
(10.0-CURRENT #0 r250275: Sun May  5 18:40:17 CEST 2013 amd64).


Regards,

Oliver
