That's normal; it also allows some flags to vary on a
per-security-flavor basis, so that last bit:

	sec=unix,rw,root_squash,no_all_squash

is just telling you what their values are for the specific sec=unix
case.  It's redundant but harmless.

Looks like you have to modify both support/nfs/exports.c:putexportent()
and utils/exportfs/exportfs.c:dump(), in addition to parseopts().
(Which is really confusing.  Someone should fix that..) Maybe you're
forgetting one of those?
