Right, but I thought we were doing this to support server implementations like linux that *do* return NFS4ERR_WRONGSEC on SECINFO_NO_NAME even though it's forbidden.  I know we normally don't work around server bugs, but this seems pretty simple.

If we don't do this, then SECINFO_NO_NAME will always fail against current linux severs no matter what the mount options - unless krb5i/p is unusable (not configured, time skew, no machine cred, etc).
