Mount type:    mount -o noatime server:/usr/src
                      mount -o noatime server:/usr/ports

how bug        build ports and kernel
happened:      NFS mounted /usr/ports
                     cd /usr/ports/textproc/docproj
                     make all install
                     NFS mounted /usr/src
                     make depend && make -j4

bug:           client sees files are filled
                 with zeros, but server has
                 non-corrupted files

                 will not link on client
               links fine on server
               if the files are copied from
               the NFS mount to local disk
               they "un-corrupt" themselves.
               very good chance to link correctly is to try run make on client
once more (cache flushes??)
