[Starcluster] starcluster fails to mount /home with NFS

I am using starcluster to launch 3 c1.xlarge instances using
ami-a19e71c8. starcluster -s works fine and does not generate any
errors and my EBS is correctly mounted on /home in the master. My
problem is that starcluster does not correctly mount this on the nodes
using NFS. When I try to mount manually, I get the following error:

root_at_domU-12-31-39-0F-6D-D1:/home# mount /home
mount.nfs: mount to NFS server
'domU-12-31-39-0F-6C-F1.compute-1.internal' failed: RPC Error: Program
not registered

This also fails with m1.large and ami-a19e71c8. However, the NFS works
fine when I use m1.small instances with ami-8f9e71e6.

Any ideas about how to get starcluster to use NFS correctly with c1.xlarge?

Here is my .starclustercfg:
