Long time ago since I played with check_mk, but I remember the agent was a 
simple shell script.

looking up the agent code in the check_mk git ...
http://git.mathias-kettner.de/git/?p=check_mk.git;a=blob_plain;f=agents/check_mk_agent.linux;hb=refs/heads/master

echo '<<<df>>>'
# The exclusion list is getting a bit of a problem. -l should hide any remote 
FS but seems
# to be all but working.
excludefs="-x smbfs -x cifs -x iso9660 -x udf -x nfsv4 -x nfs -x mvfs -x zfs -x 
prl_fs"
...

There a is a special handling for the nfs mounts, where you can try to fix / 
change the reporting

# Check NFS mounts by accessing them with stat -f (System
# call statfs()). If this lasts more then 2 seconds we
# consider it as hanging. We need waitmax.
if type waitmax >/dev/null
