--- Comment #20 from Rick Macklem <rmacklem at FreeBSD.org> ---
Well, you should never kill the nfsd with SIGKILL. The way
that is intended to be "safe" is to send SIGUSR1 to the "(master)"
nfsd. It will shut things down and kill off the other threads.

I'm not sure that I know of any way to make SIGKILL safe.
I'm pretty sure "man nfsd" says this, but maybe it needs
more emphasis?

I also believe that /etc/rc.d/nfsd does this correctly.
