I'm using the default "-u -t -n 4". I rebuilt everything with checkout  
from today and tested with osx and linux clients. both show the same  
results, viewing traffic with wireshark shows no response packet sent  
when using udp.

osx:
dumb:~ antab$ mount_nfs -o udp 192.168.1.254:/home/antab/avr32-root  
test/
mount_nfs: bad MNT RPC: RPC: Timed out\n
mount_nfs: bad MNT RPC: RPC: Timed out\n
mount_nfs: can't access /home/antab/avr32-root: Permission denied
dumb:~ antab$ mount_nfs -o tcp 192.168.1.254:/home/antab/avr32-root  
test/
dumb:~ antab$ umount test/
Bad MNT RPC: RPC: Timed out
(osx seems to always send the UMNT rpc with udp)

linux:
antab at thordis:~$ sudo mount -t nfs -o udp 192.168.1.254:/home/antab/ 
avr32-root test/
mount.nfs: mount system call failed
antab at thordis:~$ sudo mount -t nfs -o tcp 192.168.1.254:/home/antab/ 
avr32-root test/
antab at thordis:~$ umount test/
