Debian needs a bugfix release of nfs-utils, because of the SIGPIPE
bug.  This being my job, I figured I could grab the HEAD version of
nfs-utils.  And since the Debian sarge release is coming up soon (no,
really), I hoped I'd find something unlikely to crash; instead I'm
having difficulty with the build.

I gather that "libnfsidmap" is what I'll find in:

  http://www.citi.umich.edu/projects/nfsv4/linux/libnfsidmap/

Is there some reason this hasn't been made part of Debian already,
seeing as how it already contains Debian build infrastructure?

Also, is it a bug or a feature that the NFS startup scripts know how
to mount special-purpose filesystems, but not unmount them?

People are supposed to die for freedom.  Not the other way around.
