----- Forwarded message from Joel Soete <[email protected]> -----

A short analyse, it seems that's because NFSD was builtin while EXPORTFS
was a module in my previous config file. Imho EXPORTFS would be build as
NFSD?

Is the following hunk would do the trick:

If the problem occured with CONFIG_XFS_FS=m I understand what went
wrong.

It seems to be correct.

This was a side effect of Roman's fix for the XFS <-> EXPORTFS
dependency.
