It is _very much_ new behavior because as soon as I boot (and shut down) 
with a 2.6.24 kernel the problem completely disappears. Userland is *100%

I have no idea about that. AFAICT lockd is not even running (at least, 
there's no process named lockd, even when the system is running normally.
Isn't lockd an nfs3 thing? I'm using nfs4 here.
