Um, the expected one? :)

If I use a FreeBSD client to nfs mount something on a solaris system 
with the noatime option then the access time does not change no matter 
how many times I access the file. If I then unmount and remount without 
the noatime option the access time will be modified. If I do the same 
thing but with a FreeBSD nfs server the access time is modified, with or 
without the noatime option.

Thus I think my change accurately describes the situation, but I'm still 
open to better wording.
