Hmm. I don't actually have a / mount in /etc/exports (and haven't had
one since I finished building this machine, last year), and looking at
/proc/fs/nfs/exports on the server now, it's not there.

The 'v4root' makes me wonder if this was automatically synthesised?

Exports explicitly named in /etc/exports for that machine are:

... and, well, it's a bit of a mess and there are a lot of them, but
there are no nested mounts there, at least, not outside /usr/archive
which is probably not relevant for this. (The /.nfs stuff is
particularly ugly: if I try to export e.g. /home/nix/.cache rather than
/.nfs/nix/.cache the export simply never appears: /.nfs/$foo is just
built out of bind mounts for this purpose, but then /home/$name is also
a bind mount from /home/.loom.srvr.nix/$name on this network in any
case. /nfs/$foo is usually bind-mounted *back* under /home on the
client, too, but still from NFS's perspective I guess this means they
are distinct? I hope so...)
