We have big plans for the nfs rpc.  In particular, we'll be adding rpcsec
with gss soon, at least to the client.  Right now the v3 and v4 clients use
separate rpcs, but that's silly and will change.  The v3 client will use the
v4 rpc (in sys/rpc) and both will benefit from rpcsec.

I'm not sure yet what the server will look like.  We're just getting started
on the v4 server.  Rick Macklem has the beginnings of a v4 server and we
hope to build on that and get it in to FreeBSD.  The v4 server will
certainly have rpcsec, and the v3 server will want to use rpcsec too.

All help and suggestions welcome.
