Thanks. I just tested your reproducer. I have a nfsv4.2 mount on one
host that is reexported, and mounted the reexport on a different host
with "-o vers=4.1".

It seems to work for me. It's possible I don't have something set up
the same way though:

$ touch /mnt/scratch/test ; ./lstat /mnt/scratch/test
Information for: /mnt/scratch/test
