I don't see anything new in the NFSv4.1 trace from the above package.

The NFSv3 trace doesn't have any remarkable failures. But since the
NFSv3 protocol doesn't have a CLOSE operation, it shouldn't be
surprising that there is no failure there.

Seeing the FreeBSD behavior is the next step. I have a little time
today to audit code to see if there's anything obvious there. I will
have to stick with ext4 since I don't have any ZFS code here and you
said you were able to reproduce on an ext4 export.

I don't yet know enough about the issue to say whether it might
have been addressed between .13 and .15. So far the issue is not
familiar from recent code changes.
