Yeah, I agree this isn't likely to be a win in

Maybe we need to actively discourage people from running Postgres
against NFS-mounted data directories. Shane Kerr's paper cited above
mentions some other rather scary properties, including O_EXCL file
creation not really working properly.
Wouldn't you be describing a Linux-specific
