Oh, sorry, I read wrong. So, the bug is that idmapd doesn't autodetect
whether you're going to use the system as an NFSv4 server? (You can still set
NEED_IDMAPD=yes.) I can't really see that "imperfect autodetection" would be
a bug; sounds more like a wishlist bug to me.

How do you propose this is being solved? I can't offhand see a clean way,
given that /etc/exports is not reliable for finding out whether people want
to use NFS mounts or not.
