NFS hangs on 2.1.115

I tried running 2.1.115 yesterday, but found that I couldn't NFS mount
anything - the mount program just hung uninterruptibly, as did the amd
automounter. I also found I couldn't reboot successfully as the kernel hung in
the unmounting phase (no suprise there).

On the off-chance that it gives someone a clue, I've stuck my kernel
configuration on the bottom of this email. Can anyone suggest anything I can
check/try.

Thanks,
David Howells
