Do you mean: Do I have problem using the python module in conjunction of
urlparse ?
No, because, I'm not yet using it. But I would like to do it. And I find
it strange that it can not find the host by itself.

As much as I've looked at the code, the uses_netloc provide an easy way
to tell urlparse.py if such scheme as nfs is composed
by a net location (host[:port]). Which is the case. Modifying
uses_netloc by addind 'nfs' into it will transform the following:
nfsurl : 'nfs://server//a/b/c/d/e/f'
in  urlparse from:
('nfs', '', '//server//a/b/c/d/e/f', '', '', '')
to
('nfs', 'server', '//a/b/c/d/e/f', '', '', '')
