NFS man page patch that moves nordirplus/rdirplus from "Options for NFS versions 2 and 3 only" to "Options supported by all versions". Its a better fit here since this option is also needed for some NFSv4 servers. Author: Chris Vogan <cvogan@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Feb 28 14:40:11 2013 -0700 NFS man page needs updating to clarify that nordirplus mount option is also valid for NFSv4. Also should be moved to the section "Options supported by all versions".
