>Description:
With the following /etc/exports file, the system would crash with a message about kernel malloc (sorry, I did not write it down) at boot time when mountd started.
/var -network 63.99.12 -mask 255.255.255.128

Given that I did not have NFS configured into the kernel, it is reasonable that something go wrong.  However, I'd prefer an appropriate message instead of a crash.
