This is a known problem... The kernel checks UUIDs before FSIDS which cause
FSIDS to be ignored. There are two outstanding proposals to fix this problem.
1) Move two lines in the kernel so FSIDs are checked before UUIDS
2) Change mountd to only send down the FSID or the UUID but
not both as it does today.
Neither proposal has been accepted... yet...
