Sigh, took me all day to work out that this is due to aufs not providing
a filesystem ID - add any old fsid to the export options, e.g:

/mnt/omegafw_aufs_backup/
omega1(rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,fsid=1337)

and suddenly it works!

This is also mentioned in aufs' documentation:

http://aufs.sourceforge.net/aufs3/man.html#Exporting%20Aufs%20via%20NFS

Hopefully now when someone gets the 'qword_eol: fflush failed' useless
error message they'll know what to do.
