In my experience the 'intr' filesystem mount option does not always
work.  As an example, I am often unable to abort from a hung 'df' when a
remote NFS server is down.  (Even if my current directory is not
NFS-mounted.)

This might be a problem specific to 'df', though.  Ideally 'df' should
check to make sure a remote NFS server is responding (via the NFS null
procedure) before trying to get any filesystem info for that filesystem.
