Actually the combination of two booleans would have also allowed this
access.

tunable_policy(`httpd_enable_homedirs && use_nfs_home_dirs',`
	fs_list_auto_mountpoints(httpd_t)
	fs_read_nfs_files(httpd_t)
	fs_read_nfs_symlinks(httpd_t)
')

But if you are not allowing apache to look in users homedirs,
httpd_use_nfs is more secure.
