$ mount
...
nfsd on /proc/fs/nfsd type nfsd (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
cork:/home/dmcgee on /home/dmcgee/cork type nfs (rw,addr=192.168.1.101)

That is it. cork is always up when I'm trying to shutdown, so that
isn't the problem. An "lsof | grep cork" right before I run
"/etc/rc.d/netfs restart" yields no results, and yet the shutdown
still fails (but the startup is a success).

Running the umount command manually from the daemon script, as root,
yields a return value of 1 (although the NFS mount is unmounted
according to mount output). Running mount returns 0 (and the NFS share
is remounted).

Vaguely related, but it is also odd that mount has its path fully
spelled out (/bin/mount) while umount does not. That doesn't make a
difference though.
