Thanks for the tip there kris. When I initially tried this I got:
mount_nullfs /usr/ports /usr/local/jails/jail1
mount_nullfs: Operation not supported by device

Since info on nullfs seems to very scarce I thought I'd mention
here that to use nullfs it requires the kernel module compiled
and loaded which fixes the above.
