Sorry for the delayed response. It took me a moment to set up a test with nfs4
(busybox mount has no nfs4 support).

The nfs4 remounts do not fail for me. The mount syscall goes into
nfs4_parse_monolithic and 

   if (data->version != 1)                                                                                             
      return generic_parse_monolithic(fc, data);                                                                       

branches off into generic_parse_monolithic before the server address is
overwritten (this is what breaks nfs23).

Best regards,

   Martin
