I applied the patch, and attempted the mount cmd above.
I assume you mistyped the directory path, because
/proc/fs/nfs/nfsd does not exist, so I used /proc/fs/nfsd

Unfortunately it has not made any difference.

Really? Surely if userspace uses this order

but kernelspace expects this

then we have significant differences?
But if you're sure, then what else can be wrong?
My /etc/exports file contains (adding all 'unsafe' options I can find):

/p 
(rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,crossmnt,insecure,nohide,insecure_locks,no_acl)

I tried with and without (empty) hosts.allow and hosts.deny files.

I'm running out of ideas :-(
