The problem here was server-side, so upgrading your XFS kernel to the
2.4.19 release (now in their CVS tree) should fix this problem.

Regarding the NFS utils, you should be running the latest nfs-utils on
both the client and server if possible.  The version of the nfs-utils does
not have any bearing on whether you see this problem with XFS or not,
though.

Regards,
Chris
