I wrote that support some time ago when I started doing 2.5 nfsd testing,
and I was sure I commited it - but it's certainly not in the repository.

I'm chekcing in my version now which is functionally identical to
yours but matches the style used elsewhere in the file a little better.

Thanks for the patch anyway.
