portmap problems with 2.5.4-pre5

I tried to mount an NFS filesystem and had mount stuck in the D state for
quite a while (minutes), this was also in my logs.

Jan 1 02:06:00 mondecino kernel: portmap: server localhost not responding, timed out
Jan 1 02:06:00 mondecino kernel: lockd_up: makesock failed, error=-5
Jan 1 02:07:40 mondecino kernel: portmap: server localhost not responding, timed out

Eventually it did mount, but i've never had this error before on that box
(i use the box daily and do that mount more than 5 times a day). I've been
using 2.5 on that box since 2.5.0. I seem to be able to reproduce it, so
i'll leave the box running in case anyone wants to try anything.

box: RH 7.2 w/ 2.5.4-pre5
