Gerrit,
I'd reached the same conclusions. There are my new scripts for LFS-6.

run:
------------------------
#!/bin/bash
exec 2>&1
# Make sure the statd service is running.
# (the statd service should ensure portmap is running first)
svwaitup /var/service/statd
# Get the nfs service parameters from the LFS standard file
# this sets some envars.
source /etc/sysconfig/nfs-server
# Re-export all directories in /etc/exports
/sbin/exportfs -ra > /dev/null
# start some nfsd threads
/sbin/rpc.nfsd -- $PROCESSES
# Start the rpc.mountd daemon
exec /sbin/rpc.mountd --foreground
------------------------

finish:
------------------------
#!/bin/sh
exec 2>&1
# shut down the nfsd threads.
rpc.nfsd -- 0
------------------------
