Thanks for the suggestion.  I have upgraded the NFS clients in question to the 
3.12 kernel from Debian/Unstable and that problem is fixed now.

I'm using SATA-USB devices formatted as BTRFS for most of my backups which has 
compelled me to upgrade most systems to newer kernels than I usually run.  So 
running a kernel from Unstable for NFS reasons isn't a big deal.

The client system that was already working was running a 3.12 kernel, so my 
problem report was obviously lacking in that regard.
