More recent versions cope fine with NFS.  I have an 8GB share exported
out to multiple clients (Linux, FreeBSD and Solaris) without any
problems (ReiserFS has been on it for about 6 weeks).  And man, is it
nice how much faster the thing comes up with the journaling - no more 5
minute fscks on it. 

Down with long fscks! :)
