The nfs initialization code starts 4 nfsiod's. This is before anything even gets mounted. Therefore, as soon as the nfs module is loaded, MOD_COUNT is 4. I believe Olaf is working on changing that (ie, moving the nfsiod calls to where things are mounted, instead of at intialization, so they're only active when you actually do have mounts). Until then, though, you have to kill them manually.
