I mean the NFS service as delivered by nfsd, portmap and mountd.

No!

manually: just create script that checks for server existence (like 
``/etc/rc.d/nfsd check``) and run it if it is dead.

I usually prepare my servers from source with custom patches and settings. When 
a server dies on me, it makes a lot of noise in the logs, and it happens 
rarely. In 30+ years of activity, I have never restarted a production server 
because of clients using it!

NFS is an exception. I am using the obsd default, and it dies on me under load 
and without logs. It is unreliable.
