It affects my fresh installation of FC6 test1.

D'oh!  Looks like the release candidate nfs-utils went out with Test 1.
Sorry for the confusion.

nfs-utils-1.0.8.rc4-1 == Test1
nfs-utils-1.0.8-2 == rawhide

So, force upgrade it, or remove nfs-utils and then install it again from
rawhide.  There is already a bug on this.

Maybe a stupid question , but how can i "force upgrade" with yum ?

You can't. Use rpm from the command line.

Maybe another stupid question, why can't yum do a force
update/upgrade/install ? I already needed it more than once due to
broken rawhide problems, like this one.

Because Seth has stated more than once he does not want to allow people to
screw up their machines by allowing yum to do things like --nodeps or --force.

But this isn't about --force, it's about rpm -U --oldpackage. IIRC Seth wasn't *that* opposed about possibility of allowing downgrading to specific version which is what this case is about, it's just that nobody has done any work to support downgrading.
