PATCH 1/1 Clarify language in man exportfs
(I still have two pending minor patches, by the way :-) )
As discussed in a user case earlier, the wording in the exportfs man page can be a bit confusing, implying that "exportfs -u :/foo" will unexport /foo from all hosts, which it won't. Thus, make the language clearer -- based on suggestion/patch from David Liontooth.
