2.1.89: NFS client over TCP - mount hangs

Has anyone used the NFS client in 2.1.89 with TCP? I have
a Linux server here which happily accepts NFS/TCP mounts from
a Sun client. However, mounting from a Linux client doesn't
work. The mount program hangs:

FLAGS UID PID PPID PRI NI SIZE RSS WCHAN STA TTY TIME COMMAND
100 0 439 436 0 0 884 528 0 D 0300 0:00 mount -o tcp files:/mnt/raid/no-backups/tmp /mnt/tmp

... apparently indefinitely (at least, it's being hanging
for about 15 mins). There's only one console message printed,
which is:

nfs: server files not responding, still trying

Anyone else using this?

Rich.
