Um, looking at the current test scripts, we already do it. In
tests/nfs.rc, both for Linux and NetBSD:
        opt="soft,intr,vers=3$opt"

mount -vvv shows the options are indeed honoured. timeo is not specifed,
but a default of 300 is used on NetBSD.

This means the dd process getting stuck in tstile because glusterfsd
died is probably a NetBSD kernel bug. I have to investigate.
