Have you tried it? Seems to work fine on DEC's Ultrix implementation of NFS.
The "mount point" must be a directory, but it turns into a "file" when a
remote file is mounted on it.
I haven't the faintest idea whether it is "supposed" to work or not, I was
a bit surprised when I discovered this "feature" by accident.
