Does the problem happen regardless of the way you mount the drive?
What about long file names--does your NFS client support them? In any
case, try to set LFN=y and see if the problem goes away. If it
doesn't, set LFN=n and try again.

Thanks for the info, but unfortunately it doesn't help me to unlock
your problem. Maybe the questions above will help find the reason.
If not, I'd appreciate if you could download the RCS source
distribution, build it on your machine with the -g switch, and run it
under a debugger to find out which library function call fails. Armed
with that information, I can then instruct you how to debug this
problem further.

These are the latest binaries, AFAIK. So we probably have a new
NFS-related problem on our hands. Sigh...
