Bug#582107: NFS mounts default to version 4, don't fall back automatically
The result is that mounting ordinary version 3 filesystems fails with EPERM. I can't reproduce this. Neither can I -- it now appears to work without the vers=3. Sorry for the noise.

Bug#582107: NFS mounts default to version 4, don't fall back automatically
Package: nfs-common Version: 1:1.2.2-1 Recent versions of mount.nfs default to NFS version 4. The result is that mounting ordinary version 3 filesystems fails with EPERM. The bug is not the new default, which is open to debate; the bug is that Sun RPC is supposed to allow negotiation of the protocol version, and that mount appears unable to fall back to version 3 if version 4 is not supported by the server. A workaround is to add vers=3 to the options column in /etc/fstab. --jch pgp00KQYmP05g.pgp Description: PGP signature

My understanding is that mount.nfs does not even support version 4 and you have to explicitly use mount.nfs4 (i.e. specify filesystem type as 'nfs4').
