The main difference probably is that I've got an SMP machine. I've looked at bit more at the threading stuff because of that and finally found the problem: With LD_PRELOAD=libpthread.so.0, mountd works fine. I'm not sure whether this is a glibc or an nfs-kernel-server bug: AFAIK mountd doesn't use threads and should be OK with the functions from libc, but it looks like it needs some of the overriden functions from libpthread. If mountd doesn't use threads and if RPC doesn't require linking with libpthread, then this is a glibc bug. Otherwise reassign the bug to nfs-kernel-server.
