Good idea.

Looks like we have to wait for TI RPC to mature more.

Since
http://git.busybox.net/busybox/commit/?id=a86e02492d7700ce8cb4108f53646dfb025c2dff
change (2011-11-10) this option is not needed to mount NFS with 2.6.23+
kernel:
config FEATURE_MOUNT_NFS
bool "Support mounting NFS file systems on Linux < 2.6.23"
default n
depends on MOUNT
select FEATURE_HAVE_RPC
select FEATURE_SYSLOG
help
Enable mounting of NFS file systems on Linux kernels prior
to version 2.6.23. Note that in this case mounting of NFS
over IPv6 will not be possible.
Note that this option links in RPC support from libc,
which is rather large (~10 kbytes on uclibc).
