Subject: Clean way of finding NFSv4 pseudofs root?

Hello!

I'm a developer of quota tools and I'd like to implement a support for
NFSv4 into rpc.rquotad. The only difference for quotas is that in NFSv4
clients use only relative references to NFSv4 pseudofilesystem root. So
rpc.rquotad needs to find out where this root is. How can it cleanly do
it? It could for example parse /var/lib/nfs/xtab but is this supposed to
be a reasonably stable interface? Are there some other possibilites?

Thanks for ideas
Honza
