I finally got around to sticking a USB interface (urtwn0) in and testing 
NFS over that... it was PAINFULLY SLOW - took well over a minute to copy 
a 4MB test file.  But, the test file copied with no corruption!
This would seem to indicate a problem with the particular interface 
(awge0), perhaps specific to the odroid-c1, as opposed to some l2 cache 
controller issue, which is kind of where I was leaning before.  However, 
my banana pi has awge0 as well, but does not exhibit this corruption.
Any suggestions what to try/test next gratefully accepted - I would 
really love to get nfs working on this board.
