I would say Sun's position is reasonable with respect to the behavior of IP Filter, and unreasonable with respect to not tearing down the TCP connection during umount.

Any recommendations on resolving this problem?

Use return-rst on your TCP block rule?

Or maybe mounting your NFS filesystems via automount would change the behavior enough that things would work?
