I've just released nfs-utils-1.0.9.
You should be able to find it on sourceforge,
   http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=14
kernel.org
   http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/nfs/
and in git
   git://linux-nfs.org/nfs-utils


- Added 'mount.nfs' utility which can be used as a mount helper
  to mount nfs filesystems.  This requires 
     ./configure --enable-mount

  It is not enabled by default as it does not yet support 'user' mounts. 

- Makefile/autoconf tidyups
- No compiles with no warnings
- deleted debian/* at request of debian maintainer
- deleted assorted other unused files
- mountd can be run multi-threaded for configurations with many hundreds
  of clients (mountd -t 20).  Default is single-threaded
- Support for selection NFS version to be exported, and protocol to
  use.  This requires kernel patches that should be in linux 2.6.19.
- Use 65534 rather than -2 for default anon.  This makes no difference in many
  cases, but is important in some.
- New utility 'rpcdebug' for controlled kernel 'debug' options for nfs and nfsd.
- nfsstat reports NFSv4 operation statistics that should be available in
  linux 2.6.18.
- assorted other fixes
