True, though there is /proc/fs/nfsfs/volumes, and probably something 
identifying the other filesystems.  Interestingly, I can see from this 
that two nfs mount points are on the same partition on the server.  But 
at some point, it might be just as easy to find the canonical path of 
the directory and match it with the longest root from /etc/mtab.
