Ok, I can be wrong in my guess,
But I found another report earlier in mailing list archive.
Subject was "NFS regression? Odd delays and lockups accessing an NFS export." with last message from 2008-09-27 10:16:26
There were a lot of traffic with attempts to investigate problem. But I didn't find information was it resolved or not.

But NFS4-root (does it work finally?) isn't always desirable solution. Especially if different OSes used for client/server.
And it seems that generally it works, just some deadlock occurs, probably related to caching of some credentials.

As far as I know NFSv4 is known not to work with an NFSv3 root, in any

Then it isn't normal.
Diskless setup is limited by old NFS3 for non-root partition, which isn't nice.
no proper ACL, no delegations.

Any chance that someone will look at this case and try to help with pinpointing problem?
It's not that I expect something, but in case someone might be interesting and want to step in, I'm keeping mounting over NFS4 and experiencing hangs. But if now it is not the best time, then I will switch to NFS3.
