/etc/init.d/mountnfs.sh relies on the `mountpoint` command to check
this. The mountpoint executable used to be provided by the initscript
package, however that was switched to the implementation from util-linux
in 2015 (#753779).
I don't know if util-linux's mountpoint does or still does exhibit the
reported problem, but I think it's best to reassign this.
Thanks,
