First I would need to establish whether it actually was a deadlock or
desirable behaviour which is to ensure that data doesn't get lost.  It
could also have been an incompatibility between different
implementations, or even versions, of NFS.

I know how that goes: My help is so appreciated that reported bugs are
either being ignored or met with a refusal to fix them, and provided
patches that do fix the bug are also being ignored.  Same goes for
feature requests.

Help is _not_ appreciated, that much is obvious.
