Hi,

util-linux 2.13 drops support for NFS mounts:

  Release highlights:
  ------------------
   mount(8) doesn't include NFS client code anymore. Don't forget to
   install nfs-utils 1.1.0 or newer with /sbin/[u]mount.{nfs,nfs4}.

However, the last I can find in nfs-utils changelog about this is:

  commit 99414bd3eecf93f23c378d3bb3d45bc98f364abc
  Author: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de>
  Date:   Sat Jul 8 09:41:58 2006 +1000
  
      Disable building/installing mount.nfs by default.
      
      mount.nfs does not yet support 'user' option and some others.
      To make it support this we need to make it setuid-root, and
      some security isses need to be resolved before that can be done
      safely.

What's the current recommendation for distributions with regard to NFS
mounting?
