Oh, hum. But fs/xfs/Kconfig:

config XFS_FS
        tristate "XFS filesystem support"
        depends on BLOCK
        select EXPORTFS

it should be turned on automatically.  That seems to be the problem,
why wasn't it for your case?

CONFIG_EXPORTFS is supposed to be on if xfs is selected, unless something
changed recently.
