Did anything happen with this? I'd be interested in fixing this quite soon
(it's one of the few remaining missing pieces of NFSv4 in Debian, which will
need quite a lot of testing to get properly shaken out), but I haven't seen
any feedback on my patch, nor any signals that it will be applied soon.
