Well, almost fine.  Mounts are working, but lockd won't start

        # /etc/rc.d/nfslocking start
        Starting statd.
        Starting lockd.
        rpc.lockd: cannot get udp netconf.
        #

However, rpcinfo still shows the nlockmgr service bound for both udp and 
tcp

    #rpcinfo
    ...
    100021    0    udp       0.0.0.0.3.250          nlockmgr   superuser
    100021    1    udp       0.0.0.0.3.250          nlockmgr   superuser
    100021    3    udp       0.0.0.0.3.250          nlockmgr   superuser
    100021    4    udp       0.0.0.0.3.250          nlockmgr   superuser
    100021    0    tcp       0.0.0.0.3.251          nlockmgr   superuser
    100021    1    tcp       0.0.0.0.3.251          nlockmgr   superuser
    100021    3    tcp       0.0.0.0.3.251          nlockmgr   superuser
    100021    4    tcp       0.0.0.0.3.251          nlockmgr   superuser
