Does look easy, then. I thought it should be. I will have a shot
at it and add it to my patchset.

Do you know if we have a test case for this in pyNFS?

I need to think if we can cause this with the Linux client?
Perhaps: not set ROC, access a file and close, clear caches
at both ends, re access, something like that, I'll try.
