Well, just to finish this off, it turns out the client was actually
having some stability issues, which may or may not have contributed to
it falling back to NFS v2.  I won't know now because it appears to be
toast, but I have a hard time believing that a stock Fedora 10 kernel
(the client) would **not** support at least NFS v3 when a stock Fedora
8 kernel (the server) supports NFS v4, but odder things have happened.

Thanks to everyone who tried to help.
