> Actually, the current patch has a specific flaw: if mount port is not passed by nfs utils using mount options version 6, then it will be set to 0 and showed in /proc/mounts as "mountport=0".

Right: zero and negative one are both special internal port values that should not be displayed in /proc/mounts.  Why not check if mountport > 0 instead?

I'm not sure I follow here.  Why would setting nfsport be the right thing to do?  The default case is for text-based mounts only.
