RESTRICTED_STATD

Hi guys-

I was wondering if anyone ever builds nfs-utils with RESTRICTED_STATD undefined these days. It seems totally insecure to do. Is it still necessary to keep this?

It would be easier to understand, update, and test the logic in utils/ statd/monitor.c (IPv6-wise) if we could remove the unused parts of this code.

I propose removing RESTRICTED_STATD, leaving in the secure version of the code permanently and removing the insecure parts that are left out when RESTRICTED_STATD is undefined.

Thoughts?
