AHHH. IRIX 6.4...yuck. All bets are off for that one. IRIX 6.3 and
6.4 were probably the worst releases ever (said in comic guy voice :).
6.3 was a one-off to support the o2 and 6.4 was a one-off to support the
Origin 2xxx series. I would *highly* recommend upgrading to 6.5.x.

For one, NFS v3 was not very mature in the 6.4 days. I would stick to
NFS v2 if you cannot upgrade the OS. But *please* upgrade the OS :)
