Doh!  Yes, it appears you are 100% correct.

In the past, I had never before had *any* kind of nfs_server_flags= line
in my /etc/rc.conf file.  After my recent upgrade, I put one in, just to
limit the interfaces to which NFS service would be provided, and apparently,
in so doing, I utterly hobbled NFS service generally.

That outcome certainly did not follow the "principal of least surprise".

Oh well.  All's well that ends well.
