Well, 
http://chilli.linuxmds.com/~mschilli/NFS/active-active-nfs.html
http://linux-ha.org/HaNFS

might make interesting reading, though you probably already found them
via google.

But N.B.: Having both heartbeat and RH cluster suite (required for GFS) 
on the one system is not necessarily particularly sane, as they do very 
similar things (being an infrastructure layer underneath GFS is only 
_one_ of the things the RH suite does!), so maybe something akin to the 
above in spirit but without involving linux-ha heartbeat would be 
better, it "should" be possible totally within RH cluster suite. But, 
um, I dunno how yet.
