For now, since the nfs server contains trusted materials, I got rid of the
nosuid.  Got a little farther, but hit:

kernel: audit(1106858631.779:0): avc:  denied  { search } for  pid=22886
exe=/usr/bin/perl name=mnt dev=dm-0 ino=3932161
scontext=root:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:mnt_t
tclass=dir
