/etc/init.d/netmount states in a comment:
6 # We skip all NFS shares in this script because they require extra 7 # daemons to be running on the client in order to work correctly. 8 # It is best to allow nfs-utils to handle all nfs shares.
Then it carefully excludes nfs and nfs4 mounts with the following code:
18 start()
19 {
20 local x= fs= rc=
21 for x in $net_fs_list $extra_net_fs_list; do
22 case "$x" in
23 nfs|nfs4)
24 continue
25 ;;
26 esac
27 fs="$fs${fs:+,}$x"
28 done
29
30 ebegin "Mounting network filesystems"
31 mount -at $fs
However, immediately after it mounts everything with the '_netdev' option, regardless of whether it is nfs or nfs4:
33 if [ "$RC_UNAME" = Linux ]; then 34 mount -a -O _netdev 35 rc=$? 36 fi
It is common to include the '_netdev' option for nfs entries in /etc/fstab. 'man mount' states:
_netdev
The filesystem resides on a device that requires network access
(used to prevent the system from attempting to mount these
filesystems until the network has been enabled on the system).
So the manpage suggests using the _netdev option, and Funtoo's documentation doesn't warn against it. Although, to be fair, '_netdev' does not appear in the fstab suggestions on http://www.funtoo.org/Nfs
I think some logic should be inserted into lines 33-36 which excludes nfs and nfs4, even if the _netdev option is found. This seems to be the intent of this script, based on the comment in lines 6-8.
