[Unionfs] Can't mount NFS-exported union anymore in unionfs-1.4

[Michael Creel]

I was successfully exporting a unionfs share without the imap option using ver. 
1.3. Is the necessity something new with ver. 1.4? I was unable to export using 
1.4 using the patch Wilhem Meier posted the other day, but I didn't try the imap 
option.

I'm willing to do some testing if I can get step-by-step instructions of what to 
try.
