Well, I tried switching to a 5.0 server, and with lockd and statd running on
both hosts, I still get the hang, so maybe this does work with 4.x in theory
there's just some magical thing I'm missing?  Any ideas?  It's just locking
that doesn't work, and lockd and statd are running on both hosts and registered
with the port mapper.
