This doesn't make any sense to me at all.
You can certainly have the NFS client compiled and even running
without lockd running (if you mount with "-o nolock") and in that case
you are free you register your owner user-space NLM server (though I'm
not sure what good it would do you).
And if you want to mount an NFS filesystem without "-o nolock", then
you really need the kernel lockd running, or locking will not work.
Can you explain what you are trying to do - I'm curious.

Uhm... Do you mean
+#ifndef NLM_PROGRAM
?? Still not sure how that helps.
