It looks as if you'll have to do that. 'mount -oremount' does not
really cause the root filehandle to get updated. The only thing it
does at the moment is allow you to change from a read-only to a
read-write filesystem.

What kind of filesystem is this BTW: is it an ext2 partition you are
exporting?
