I think that's not enough....

The upcall was made earlier, and the kernel has cached it (even if it's
a negative result). So, just to make sure, could you try:
killall rpc.mountd
exportfs -f #flush the kernel's caches
rpc.mountd #(the patched version)
and then try again?
Of course, I may be barking up completely the wrong tree here, but I
think that bug in mountd could explain the problem you're seeing....--b.
