Like I said, I think something else is amiss. If the Linux system has
busted NFSv4, then it shouldn't be offering that. If it didn't, then
that problem wouldn't happen. Or if it is offering NFSv4, and it's not
broken, then it'd be good to know exactly what goes wrong. Perhaps
there's something that could be fixed on one or both sides to make sure
that v4 just works out of the box.
I agree that it's not exactly operationally interesting -- not working
is not working, and a viable fix is a viable fix -- but as this is a
development list ...
