I'm totally aware of the fact that this approach to enhance the security 
is dysfunctional and pretty lame [sigh].
Anyway, it was done like this in ancient days - and never worked but 
never did any harm either.

Now it's not working anymore and the only thing changed is the kernel.
So to get back to my initial question: *Is this a NFS bug?* Or has maybe 
something else changed  in the kernel?
