They should enable NFS and RPC debugging on the client when this problem
occurs, put the bzipped logs somewhere and send a pointer to this list.

To turn on debugging, do this

	echo 65535 > /proc/sys/sunrpc/nfs_debug
	echo 65535 > /proc/sys/sunrpc/rpc_debug

If something in the RPC client is going berserk this logs will probably
grow like crazy. It may be helpful to kill syslog and 
"cat /proc/kmsg > /tmp/nfs.log" directly. Or even use "head -10000"
instead of cat.
