Public bug reported:

This is needed to export aufs filesystems via nfs.

This was set in a previous version (in Debian - http://bugs.debian.org
/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=490079), and released in Ubuntu build for
aufs 0+20080719-4
(https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aufs/0+20080719-4), so this could
perhaps be considered a regression (although to be fair aufs and its
packaging has undergone significant rewriting since then).

Regardless considering aufs is a popular method of supporting large
storage systems (among other things) and nfs is a popular method of
exporting large storage systems, it would be great if this could be
enabled in a future build, unless there is some known contraindication.
