The nfsservctl system call has long been superceded by a better
interface, and is finally getting removed in the 3.1 kernel.
I'm not sure what to do with the man page--remove it, or add a note
saying it's gone from recent kernels? Do you have something you
generally do in such cases?
It's been replaced by a set of files in the nfsd filesystem, which is
documented in nfsd(7). That man page looks sufficiently up-to-date to
cover the functionality previous provided by nfsservctl. (Though I only
skimmed it quickly. It might be worth a more careful review some day.)
