As I figured, statsafely (which wraps around stat(2)) returns -1 on your nfs 
mount, therefore ss never gets set. I've got no idea what the "user device 
random seed" is needed for, so I suggest you file a pr with the above info.

Additionally, you can try the following patch to see why exactly the stat(2) 
call fails:

strerror(errno));

            ss = 1;
            s = (u_int)sb.st_ino ^ (u_int)sb.st_rdev;
            break;
