Please let me if here is not the place talking about rpc.statd.
this's going to talk about rpc.statd.
in case SM_DIR doesn't exist, it may not be created.
according code in shuffle_dirs(), since st is not initailized, whether
the SM_DIR is created depends on the thread stack of rpc.statd.
the fix is to insert a memset() before calling stat().
#the patch is against nfs-utils 1.0.9
