nothing I'm aware of yet as far as V3 is concerned, though that does not
mean there's nothing new in a different path ;-)

what we do have already, but for V4 is:

NFSv4 clients leave too many .nfsXXX files around
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6636160

though it specifically claims using V3 cures the problem...

so this must be something rather new or yet unknown, would it
be possible to reproduce this somehow ?
