I just included this for completeness.

No the file was not deleted.

But the client (incl. portmap) was never restarted and worked fine
before and after. (I am just now working on this box and did not
reboot since Feb 23 09:07, when I installed your patch :-)
Also note that this is the same operation: The same lookup failes
first with ESTALE and then the RPC error 111 is showing up.
This situation lasted for about 1.5 minutes.
