ldd seems to be telling me that libnfs is not linked to the main binary
after this patch.

I can't seem to reproduce this. Is it possible you applied this patch
without applying the first 3 before it? Or maybe didn't have modules
enabled in the configuration? As far as I can tell NFS seems to building
as a module and doesn't seem to be hard linked, so I'm not really sure
what's going on.
