Often experiencing nfs server foo:/bar: not responding

Still investigating. From what we can tell (in Steve Kargl's case), this
looks like a FreeBSD NFS server issue. The nfsd's on his server are all
blocked in uma_zone_slab (no response to NFS requests, NFS clients keep 
rexmitting). Don't have core, so don't know more.

I'll take a look at the core once he sends it to me. Hopefully we'll have
a fix for this soon.
