We have diverged already too much in past with nfs-utils from
upstream, leading to Debian having for a very long time ancient
nfs-utils versions. So the way to go here is to make sure the fix is
integrated upstream in the service files. Then we can pick up the fix
in anvance and drop it again once we rebase the version.

Does this helps?

Salvatore
