Yes, it should do NFSv3 and run when "-e" is specified for both
nfsd and mountd (or set nfsv4_server_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf,
which sets the "-e" flag for both).

You will need to create the empty file called
   /var/db/nfs_stablerestart
using something like
   install -o root -g wheel -m 600 /dev/null /var/db/nfs-stablerestart
before it will start up the first time.

Good luck with it, rick
