While attempting to do a reboot today, I ran across a nasty little problem.
Seems my system crashed during shutdown.  From the dbx output, it seems that
the problem has to do with NFS.  My system had previously had 3 NFS partions
mounted R/W. I did a 'umount -t nfs' the day before due to the remote system
being moved to another location.

The following is the output from 'hinv', 'versions' and the 'dbx' traceback.
Has anyone else seen this behavior?  This has happended to me before. Most
recently during a shutdown caused by a power outage.  The remote system isn't
on a battery backup, so I had done the "umount -t nfs" and waited for the
umount to timeout before I started the shutdown.
