 I split your insanely long line here, so that I can direct you to
/blfs/view/ - the 7.5 book is there if you wish to refer to it.

 You _could_ get the bootscript tarballs referenced in those two
versions, untar them somewhere, and then diff the two trees to see
what has changed.  If you put the output from diff into a file, and
you have got vim set up nicely, you can use 'view' on that file to
get nicely coloured changes.

 There is also a ChangeLog in the bootscript repo, although we do
not always remember to update it :-)

 But in this case, the rpcbind init.d script has not changed since
2011.

 Your system, your rules, of course.  But I will be VERY surprised
if what is in the current svn book (or 7.6, which is still almost
the same) does not build on LFS-7.5.  Of course, nfs is one of the
less-well tested parts: the client part has worked almost all the
time, but for the server I have only used the 7.4 and 7.6 versions.
