I've added the fix from Olaf. It should work now.

PS: I've uploaded a new version of the netstd package to chiark. It
    should be mirrored to ftp.debian.org tonight.

When mounting an nfs volume with no_root_squash set things worked fine
for a while then my root uid seemed to get squashed for some reason.
Unmounting and mounting again seemed to solve the problem. I'm not
quite sure what caused this.
