Thanks for your reply.  The annoying thing is that nothing is being
logged at all.

Turned out that the mount was failing because of the permissions,
or more accurately, the ACLs of the directory being exported.
I had to turn on one bit of access for 'everyone':

                 owner@:rwxpdDaARWcCos:-------:allow
              everyone@:------a-------:-------:allow
              everyone@:rwxpdDaARWcCos:-------:deny

     read_attributes (a)     The ability to read basic attributes
                             (non-ACLs) of a file.

Then I was able to mount.
