Please stop shouting - I based my analysis/suggestions
on some assumptions and actually even asked if that's
the case.  Note I didn't downgrade the bug severity,
awaiting your comments/confirmation.

If you want fighting, you're ofcourse free to rebuild
anything, but I don't think it is productive.

You now demonstrated your usage case and that is enough
to convince me or anyone else that I took a wrong way,
and the issue is quite a bit more complex.

Note again that NFSv4 does not work with autofs still --
namely, its /net map still requires portmapper.  And
note - also again - that even without turning on this
"HAVE_NFS" thing, it were working just by a chance.

I'll take another look at what the two options (with
and without "NFS Support") gives.

But I want to understand: why all this shouting from
you?

Thanks,
