Not sure why Casper's response didn't show up in thread.  His suggestion to double-check the share as ro/anon=0 was the issue (should have caught that basic error).  The root cause of the problem turned out to be a corrupt line in dfstab.  The following entry was there:

tasmania-nv# grep nv.sparc /etc/dfs/dfstab
share -F nfs -o ro,anon=0 /export/install/nv.sparc

But the share showed up rw for some inexplicable reason... 

tasmania-nv# share | grep nv.sparc
-               /export/install/nv.sparc   rw   ""  

...w/out any msg's in any of the logs.

I deleted that line in dfstab, typed in another by hand & restarted nfs/server.  It's working fine now.

Thanks, Casper!
