Technically, Mac OS X 10.5 "Leopard" has some basic NFSv4.0 support in it.
But just enough to make it look like it passes all the Connectathon tests.
Not enough to warrant use by anyone but the terminally curious (or masochistic).
This is mentioned briefly in the mount_nfs(8) man page.

It would be reasonable to expect that future MacOSX releases will include
increasing levels of functionality and that NFSv4 will eventually be made
the default NFS version.
