The exports file isn't enough to show whether directories are in
the same filesystem (see the warning in the BUGS section of exports(5).

Looks like this is documented:
Each line in the file (other than comment lines that begin with a ``#'')
specifies the mount point(s) and export flags within one local server
filesystem for one or more hosts.

iirc there's something in the source tree which doesn't work with
a read-only mount (xenocara is OK though), not sure whether lndir
gets around that or not.
