How do you get FC13 to export using NFS3?

There seems to be a great deal of effort in today's FC13/rawhide release to make 
sure NFS3 can't be served. First, opening NFS server in the firewall rules 
doesn't open port 111 (sunrpc) so the connect can be built. Then after opening 
that port manually the firewall RELATED rule no longer considers a port handed 
out in reply to a GETPORT request to be related, and that port gets an 
administratively prohibited ICMP reply.

NFS4 is all wonderful, but it isn't what the clients speak. Is there an option, 
method, script, something to make it work without poking great holes in the 
firewall?
