In order to make clients work with servers that worked well with previous versions
of nfs-utils, the cultprit probably being commit f9802988 that bumped the default
autonegotion version to 4.2, what the patch does is only to negotiate a lower version
in case of errors, and hence making 1.3.2 working with servers that worked with
1.3.1 (that only tried version 4[.0]).

Will probably save some people some time.
