You're out of luck here - the entires are checked in the following
order: FQDN, subnet, wildcard, netgroup, anonymous and finally gss.
Here 'wildcard' means anything except the bare '*' which is considered
anonymous.  Any entries on the same "level", i.e. two netgroups or two
FQDNs are checked in the same order in which they appear in
/etc/exports.
