IMO NFS should not be compiled in the kernel.  It has plenty of support
to run as a service (and has done so for years), and if compiled in will
force a reboot anytime you change the configuration --
change /etc/exports, etc.

We need more detailed information to fix the problem, but I suspect that
if you compiled in some of the things that routinely run as services
(kudzu and nfs are 2 of those) then there will be problems starting the
service if the kernel already has the ports/sockets/functions already
busy.
