I did send out a heads up when I committed it. If you replace the
kernel, but not pxeboot (built from recent sources), then the
default reverts back to using NFSv2. Either add "nfsv3" as an
option for the "/" line in /etc/fstab for the root fs on the NFS
server or replace "pxeboot" with one built from recent sources.
I think this is probably what is causing it.

ps: NFSv2 only used 32bit #s for the sizes, so an overflow
can easily happen.
