Hmm, convinced. :)

There will be the day when i'm going to import a script named
`exportfs' into FreeBSD, with just that contents:
#!/bin/sh
if [ -f /var/run/mountd.pid ] ; then
kill -HUP `cat /var/run/mountd.pid`
else
mountd
fi
(I know that the check for a stale /var/run/mountd.pid is missing...)
