Placing things on NFS causes the problem that device numbers of the inode
will change any time the partition is unmounted+remounted.
This change in device driver makes tla believe that the files have changed.
In the revision library, if a file has changed, it means possible
corruption so tla does not like it one bit.
In the working tree, it is completely normal that files get modified, so
tla handles it correctly, except that it will pessimistically diff all the
files to see what has changed (and discover that most of them haven't
actually changd after all).
I.e. a working tree on NFS is OK, except that it will be slower than
necessary at times.
