Yes, this is correct. illumos as a whole, and any distribution built on it, does not currently support an NFS server running inside a zone. To workaround this at Joyent, we have a user-level NFSv3 server we've written. It is available at https://github.com/joyent/sdc-nfs. There might be other user-level NFS servers that would also work.
