Mine is 2.2.1 vanilla (actually plus my 1-liner patch to fix that
RC_REPLSTAT len != 1 bug in nfsproc.c).

My NFS client is the localhost, i.e. Linux 2.2.1. The file is being
written by bonnie and is (was) 500MB

Me too.

Me too.

I can't remember what I did to get the free space back, but it did soon
after I ran the test.

Yes. I wouldn't have even remembered it happened though :-)
