I have looked at a trace I made using snoop and it shows an NFS_ACL call which
is not supported by FreeBSD. It should have sent a reply that it does not
know the NFS_ACL protocol but apparently it does not. 
The only return traffic I see is an empty packet with the tcp ACK.
It looks like an implementation error in the -current NFS server.
