Hello
I have very similar behavior. On the server side i have nfs kernel server
(nfs version 3) - when mounting ext3 directories - all works fine,
but when i export btrfs directory and try to mount it:
on client side (debian sid) i've got:
mount.nfs: Connection timed out
and during mounting time on server side (debian lenny):
about 20 lines with: "authenticated mount request ..."

i also tryed it on another client with debian lenny and first mount try
was about several seconds long and results in:
mount.nfs: Stale NFS file handle
next tryes results with same error, but it was very fast responses
to the mount command

after several mount tryes i always have a problem with restarting
nfs-kernel-server with debian init script:

Stopping NFS kernel daemon: mountd nfsd.
Unexporting directories for NFS kernel daemon....
Exporting directories for NFS kernel daemon....
Starting NFS kernel daemon: nfsd <--- hungs here
... and the only way to bring the nfs server back online
was to reboot the server :(

regards,
