Uh, mountd is used for nfsd, so I'm not sure why you're trying to do
this... The reference to /etc/exports is being picked up from
/etc/rc.d/mountd on this line:
required_files="/etc/exports"
and it's picking up the actual `does it exist?' test from:
[gcooper@orangebox /usr/home/gcooper]$ grep -A 3 required_files /etc/rc.subr
#	required_files	n	If set, check for the readability of the given
#				files before running a (re)start command.
#
#	required_modules n	If set, ensure the given kernel modules are
--
		rcvar required_dirs required_files required_vars
	eval unset ${_arg}_cmd ${_arg}_precmd ${_arg}_postcmd
	case "$_file" in
--
		for _f in $required_files; do
			if [ ! -r "${_f}" ]; then
				warn "${_f} is not readable."
				if [ -z "$rc_force" ]; then
