I don't understand how to apply that sentence to the case of a
preexisting non-regular-file in the same directory.

(Actually, I don't understand it in the case of an existing regular file
either--to me "create without checking for existence" sounds like "even
if a file already exists, you should clobber it and create a new one
anyway"....)

Anyway, something like the following (untested) should change v3 to
return nfs_ok in this case, and v4 to return the same errors it would on
a non-create open.
